Kathmandu, June 4
Balendra Shah, the newly-elected Mayor of Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC), met with
Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’, the Chairman of the CPN (Maoist Center).
Chairperson Dahal praised Mayor Shah during the meeting, saying that he has started his work by integrating and cooperating with everyone. “Your victory itself is a revolution,” Prachanda said.
“Former mayors and independent candidates had a system of aligning with one party and
abusing the other party. However, you have started the work by cooperating with everyone.
We will always support you as your work is praise worthy.”
Mayor Shah had previously met with Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba of the Nepali
Congress and CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli of the CPN-UML.
