The NC and the CPN-UML on November 3, registered their proposal on state restructuring, system of governance, electoral model and judicial system, major contentious issues of the new statue, at the Parliament Secretariat. Accusing the ruling parties of preparing the proposal against the past agreements, opposition parties have expressed strong objection to it. While the ruling parties are pressuring the committee chair to forward the document to the full CA meeting for deliberations, the opposition parties, including the Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M), Madesh-based parties and some other fringe political parties, have stood against forwarding it to the full House. However, CPDCC head Bhattarai claimed that the meeting was put off in a bid to avoid further confrontation among political parties. He said that he will hold talks with CA Chairman Subas Nembang and the top leaders of the major political parties to resolve the matter. "We should take some time to ease the conflict rather than fuel the confrontation by taking decisions in a hurry," Bhattarai said. "The meeting was put off with a view to find a permanent solution to the conflict."

Prime Minister (PM) Sushil Koirala said a new constitution would be promulgated not only on the basis of two-third majority the ruling parties enjoy in Parliament, but also by forging consensus with the opposition parties including the Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M), reports Nepal News. “Constitution enacted through two-third majority would not be sustainable. It is our target that a constitution be issued based on the consensus of all political parties,” PM Koirala said while speaking at a program in Chitwan, Kathmandu, on November 5. The PM said he has no greed of power and that he will quit the government as soon as a constitution is drafted and issued. “It is the responsibility of all political parties to work towards a timely constitution. Therefore, I request parties to act and react responsibly.”

Speaking with journalists in Kathmandu on November 5, chairperson of Constitutional-Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) and leader of UCPN-M, Baburam Bhattarai, said he is effortful to prevent potential conflict amid the rapid polarization among political parties, reports Nepal News. “The seven-province non-ethnic and geographic model of federalism proposed by Nepali Congress (NC) and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) has increased distance and suspicion among political parties,” Bhattarai said. “We still have the chances of releasing a constitution by January 22. In between, we need to spend one or one and half week to re-engage in consensus building attempts.”

The Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M)-led alliance has turned ready to forward the joint proposal of the Nepali Congress (NC) and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) to a full sitting of the Constituent Assembly (CA) for further deliberations, reports Republica on November 8. A meeting of 27 political parties (the signatory parties of the NC-CPN-UML proposal not included), convened by the UCPN-M at Singha Durbar, Kathmandu on November 7, concluded that the proposal could be included in the annex of the report to be submitted by the Constitutional Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) to the full CA. “We concluded that the NC-UML joint proposal can be included in the annex of the report, but not as a major part of it,” UCPN-M chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal aka Prachanda said. “It can be discussed in the CA only as reference material.”

PM Koirala urged Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal aka Prachanda to refrain from using the language of threat and intimidation while voicing differences over various proposals floated in the course of writing the new constitution, reports Republica. "It seems it has become his [Dahal´s] habit to threaten and try to intimidate others whenever he finds a proposal unacceptable. I urge him to stop such behavior," said PM Koirala said at the meeting in Kathmandu on November 9.

On November 10, Prime Minister Sushil Koirala said obstructing the promulgation of new constitution on January 22 is impossible, reports The Himalayan Times. The PM expressed the determination that the constitution writing process will complete at any cost, while speaking at a programme organised by the Ganeshman Singh and People's Movement Martyr Memorial Peace Academy on the occasion of birth centenary of supreme commander late Ganeshman Singh, in Kathmandu. The PM said he talked with Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) Chairman, Pushpa Kamal Dahal aka Prachanda, on November 9, and urged him not to threaten them in course of constitution writing process. He further said that he also urged Constitutional Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) Chairperson Baburam Bhattarai to take the disputed issues of the constitution writing in the Constituent Assembly (CA) meeting and local level for discussions if consensus could not be forged at the CPDCC in this regard.

On November 11, the chairman of the Constitutional Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) proposed a separate mechanism of top leaders of major parties to forge consensus on the disputed issues and the way forward in the middle of deepening crisis in the constitution drafting process, reports Ekantipur.com. Baburam Bhattarai said an entity within the CPDCC comprised of top leaders could hold discussions necessary for ending the deadlock. The Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) senior leader suggested the alternative after the CPDCC failed to settle contentious issues and the ruling party leaders refused to attend a meeting of the Political Committee called by its leader Pushpa Kamal Dahal aka Prachanda. Ruling party leaders, however, have said it is not necessary to form another cross-party mechanism. They charged that Bhattarai’s proposal was aimed at putting their proposal on hold instead of forwarding it to the Constituent Assembly.

Ruling parties have assured the diplomatic community that they would bring a new statute by the January 22 deadline even if it requires them to put contentious issues in constitution writing to vote in the Constituent Assembly (CA), reports Republica on November 13. Speaking at a function organized to brief Kathmandu-based diplomats on ongoing political developments and efforts being made so far to promulgate new statute, Nepali Congress (NC) President Sushil Koirala and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) Chairman KP Sharma Oli said ruling parties will continue make efforts for consensus till the end. The leaders mentioned with special emphasis that they would bring new statute in a “democratic spirit” if their efforts to forge consensus do not yield results. “We will bring new statute as per the people´s mandate and will,” the source quoted the leaders as saying at the briefing.

On November 14, Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal aka Prachanda challenged the ruling Nepali Congress (NC) and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) coalition to replace UCPN-M leader Baburam Bhattarai as the chairman of the Legislature-Parliament's Constitutional-Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) if they wanted to issue the constitution using their majority at the Constituent Assembly (CA), reports Nepal News. Talking at a CPDCC meeting, Dahal said that the NC - CPN-UML joint proposal on the main sticking points for the content of the new constitution could not be presented to the CA. If the coalition wants to go ahead with two-thirds majority and present their proposal to the CA, they would have to replace the CPDCC chair before they could proceed, Dahal warned NC and CPN-UML leaders. While NC and CPN-UML kept the pressure in CPDCC meeting to have their proposal sent to the CA, leaders of UCPN-M and Madhesh-based parties kept challenging them to issue the constitution using their majority if they dared. They said there was no alternative but to promulgate the constitution through consensus and stressed on working towards an agreement. Meanwhile, CPDCC chair Baburam Bhattarai reiterated that attempts to build consensus should continue even if it meant taking a few more days. Bhattarai continues to maintain that it would be best if the parties take an extra four to five days to discuss to build an agreement in the different levels of talks between the top three parties, held at the Prime Minister's Official Residence in Baluwatar, Kathmandu.

Party secretary Netra Bikram Chand, leader of a faction of Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (CPN-Maoist) on November 15, threatened to launch another round of armed insurgency should it be excluded from the country’s political process, reports The Hindu. Chand said they would go for revolution if mainstream parties continue to bypass them in the overall political process, Xinhua reported. At a press conference after a secret meeting of the party, Chand said the party needed its own army and organisations to fight for the welfare of the people. “The state has already raised the weapons so it would be legitimate for us to launch revolt for establishing people’s rights,” Chand said.

A meeting of top leaders from the ruling coalition partner Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) and the main opposition party Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) on November 16, could not find any common ground for settling the major disputes in the constitution-making process, reports Republica. Leaders from the two parties held a meeting at Baneshwar, Kathmandu in an effort to end the protracted deadlock at the Constitutional Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) of the Constituent Assembly (CA). The CPDCC meeting on November 14, was convened with a view to improve inter-party relations, was deferred for November 17, as lawmakers from the ruling and opposition parties were sharply divided whether or not the joint proposal of the Nepali Congress (NC) and CPN-UML should be forwarded to the full CA.

The task of resolving disputes in the constitution-making process has suffered a serious setback on November 17 as the meeting of the Constitutional Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) of the Constituent Assembly (CA) has been deferred until further notice even as the January-22 deadline for promulgating a new constitution is drawing close, reports Republica. CPDCC Chairman Baburam Bhattarai adjourned the meeting for an indefinite period after Nepali Congress (NC) leader Ram Chandra Paudel submitted signatures of 43 of the 71 members of the committee demanding that Bhattarai forward the joint proposal of NC and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) to the CA’s full House.

A meeting of 22-party alliance led by the main opposition Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) has denounced the joint proposal on disputed issues of the constitution presented by ruling NC and CPN-UML to the CPDCC, reports The Himalayan Times. The meeting termed the proposal against the spirit of consensus and stated that it is unacceptable for the alliance. Talking to media after the meeting, Tarai Madhes Democratic Party Co-Chair Hridayesh Tripathi argued that the seven-province model presented by the ruling parties to the CPDCC has failed to incorporate the spirit of federalism.

On November 18, Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (CPN-Maoist) Chairman Mohan Baidya requested party Secretary Netra Bikram Chand not to go against the essence of the party’s statute, reports Ekantipur.com. Baidya called Chand to the party headquarters, Buddhanagar, and asked him to end all activities that are against the party’s policies and statute. Baidya told Chand that an immediate “unified rebellion” as demanded by the latter and his supporters was impossible under current political circumstance. Chand told Baidya that his faction was moving forward with a different roadmap as the CPN-Maoist has not been working with a clear agenda. According to a party member, during the three-hour discussion, Chand tried to convince Baidya into returning to the path of revolution and people’s struggle. Chand had recently returned to the Capital after holding a two-day ‘central interaction’ event organised by his faction in Kapilvastu. He also boycotted the recent party’s Central Committee (CC) meeting.

On November 18, Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) chairman and coordinator of the recently formed Political Committee, Pushpa Kamal Dahal aka Prachanda said that the coalition-partner's arrogance over majority has lead to the current political deadlock, thereby, delaying the constitution drafting process, reports Nepal News. Dahal expressed his opinion while receiving a memorandum submitted by the Federation of Nepali Journalists (FNJ) - to put pressure on the parties to issue constitution on time - at his Lazimpat residence, Kathmandu. Dahal says, "We are the opposition in the Parliament, however, Nepali Congress (NC) and CPN (UML) [Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML)] treat us as the opposition even in the Constituent Assembly where, in fact, nothing but constitution-making must be focused on." According to Dahal, if all the parties put in serious effort to continue with the agreements made in the past, consensus can still be reached.

Talking to reporters at his office in Singha Durbar, Bhattarai challenged the ruling parties to remove him from CPDCC chairmanship. “I will not move any proposal until at least the major parties agreed on the next step. I will not act under anyone’s pressure. If the ruling parties do not mend their ways, the situation will only worsen and get more complex,” Bhattarai said.

Twenty parties represented in the Constituent Assembly (CA), including the Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) and Madhesi forces, have rejected the joint proposal forwarded by the ruling parties- Nepali Congress (NC) and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML), indicating a deepening polarization in the constitution drafting process, reports Ekantipur.com. All the 31 parties in the CA are now clearly divided into two camps-ruling and opposition-which could further complicate the statute drafting process. On November 16, majority members of the Constitutional-Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) submitted their signatures backing the proposal of the NC and the CPN-UML on the outstanding issues of constitution-writing. A meeting of the 20 parties termed the joint proposal and the subsequent signature campaign as being against the spirit of the Interim Constitution and peace agreements. The alliance stated that the ruling parties’ act violated the CA rules of procedure as their forceful attempt to push the proposal had spoiled the political climate.

On November 30, leaders of the major parties decided to engage in informal talks in search of consensus for resolving the disputes in the constitution writing process, reports Ekantipur.com. Meetings of the High Level Political Committee (HLPC) led by Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal aka Prachanda and the Constitutional Political Dialogue and Consensus Committee (CPDCC) led by Baburam Bhattarai concluded that the top leaders should take charge of ironing out the differences among the parties on the contents of the new constitution. As per the agreement, Prime Minister Sushil Koirala, Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) Chairman KP Oli and Dahal will explore alternatives on the process and the substance of constitution-writing. At the meetings of the CPDCC and the HLPC, top leaders said they will try to seek meeting points on federalism, forms of government, judiciary and electoral system. If they cannot agree on the contents, the parties will come up with an agreeable way to submit the CPDCC report to the Constituent Assembly. The CPDCC meeting that lasted 10 minutes was deferred by three days (December 3) after the leaders demanded a few days’ time for preparations. Bhattarai said that the stalled talks among the parties had resumed. Further, the UCPN-M proposed inducting the Madhesh-based parties into cross-party talks. The party believes that the support of the regional parties is crucial for finalising the constitution.
