The faction of the Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist-Leninist (CPN-UML) led by Madhav Kumar Nepal and Jhalanath Khanal on August 6 urged the establishment faction to halt all organisational activities, including the renewal of party membership and convening of ward and local level party conventions, until the unity efforts brought concrete and positive results, reports The Himalayan Times. The establishment faction, however, said it could not halt its activities endlessly.
