Chairman of the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Pushpa Kamal Dahal alias Prachanda has said the political ban imposed on Netra Bikram Chand-led Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (CPN-Maoist-Chand) should be lifted, reports Khabarhub. Talking to a television, Prachanda said “The ban was imposed on Biplav outfit even without consulting me. If the Oli-led government really wants to hold a dialogue with the Biplav outfit, it has to first lift the ban. We will support it.” Prachanda has been publicly speaking in favor of Biplav outfit after the NCP was divided politically.
