The fringe parties have maintained that the "national consensus government" formed only after understanding between the three major parties won't be acceptable to them.

A meeting of 22 small parties represented in the Constituent Assembly (CA) held at the old national assembly building in Singha Durbar on Sunday stressed on the need to form a consensus government by garnering support of all the parties in the CA.

Talking to media-persons after the meeting, Chure Bhawar National Party chairman Keshav Prasad Mainali said that a consensus government formed only on the basis of understanding between three major - UCPN (Maoist), NC and CPN (UML) - would never be acceptable to other parties in the CA.

The meeting also urged the three major parties to implement the three-point agreement of May 28, adding that till it is not implemented there will be no meaning in trying to forge understanding for a consensus or majority government.

At the meeting, the small parties also called upon the major parties not to stall constitution drafting process by creating political turbulence while trying to forge consensus to form a government under their leadership.
