Nepali Congress leaders held 'informal' meeting with Maoist leaders Wednesday in a bid to hammer out a deal to end the current political standoff.
NC central leaders Bimalendra Nidhi and Krishna Prasad Sitauala went to Maoist chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal's residence to discuss thorny issues including formation of a unity government and extension of the tenure of the Constituent Assembly.
Maoist leaders are known to have reiterated their demands for immediate resignation of the Prime Minister in response to the party's decision tocall off the indefinite general strike while the NC leaders tried to convince them on extension of the CA's tenure.
The UCPN (M) has said it is not in favour of extending the tenure of CA before the resignation of the Prime Minister
