Caretaker Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal has accused the Maoists of making a complete 180 degree turn from their earlier commitment to complete the "remaining tasks of the peace process" following his resignation from the post.
Talking to media-persons in Kirtipur on Sunday, he said that the Maoists need to be careful as well as greatly improve their habit of saying one thing and doing just the other if they want to form a government under their leadership.

PM Nepal said the Maoist leaders had promised him that they will try to forge an understanding for a national consensus once they complete the remaining tasks of the peace process, but they failed to live up to their commitments.

In the three-point agreement of May 28 the Maoists agreed to extend the term of the Constituent Assembly (CA) and complete the remaining tasks of the peace process if PM Nepal resigns from his post to pave way for a national consensus government.

He also charged the Maoists of not being able to shed their totalitarian past and warned that if the Maoists keep the same attitude it will fall into trouble.
