Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Central Coordination Committee to Meet Monday

Kathmandu. The Central Coordination Committee of the Nepal Communist Party (NCP) is scheduled to meet on Monday.

Leader Prakash Jwala stated that the meeting, to be held at the central office in Parisdanda at 1:00 PM, will see the presentation of a proposal prepared by Coordinator Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda' and Co-coordinator Madhav Kumar Nepal.

According to Jwala, the meeting is expected to address the division of labor among leaders, departmental responsibilities, and the completion of the secretariat and central working committee.

The coordination committee meeting was originally called on Chaitra 19 to decide on election reviews and future party plans. From Chaitra 23 to 28, leaders provided written and verbal feedback on the election review report presented by Coordinator Prachanda.

In the meeting held on Baishakh 3, the coordinator and co-coordinator addressed the questions raised. The meeting was adjourned after assigning the task of drafting the decision proposal to Prachanda and Madhav. Leader Jwala informed that the meeting will conclude once the proposal brought by the party leadership is approved.

'As per the decision to entrust the coordinator and co-coordinator with the responsibility of reaching a consensus on the completion of central committees, division of labor, departmental responsibilities, and integration, they will present the proposal. The meeting will conclude tomorrow after discussions on the proposal,' Jwala told Ratopati.

According to him, the responsibilities of provincial in-charges/co-in-charges and coordinators/co-coordinators will be assigned by senior leaders. The criteria for assigning responsibilities will be based on alternating roles from the former parties. For instance, if the Maoist Center gets the in-charge role, the Unified Socialist will get the co-in-charge role, and vice versa. The same criteria will apply to provincial coordinators and co-coordinators.

Jwala mentioned that departmental responsibilities will be assigned similarly to the geographical division of labor. Before the merger, the Maoist Center and Unified Socialist had 32 departments. After the merger, the heads and deputy heads of these departments will be assigned.

Additionally, the meeting agenda includes the approval of the election review report. Prachanda had presented a 10-page review report to the meeting. Jwala informed that the report will be rewritten based on the suggestions provided by the leaders, noting that this decision was already made on Baishakh 3.

'The decision to rewrite the report based on leaders' suggestions has already been made. No further discussion is needed on this,' he said.

There are preparations to delegate the responsibility of unity and integration at the municipal and district levels to the respective provinces. Jwala stated that a proposal may be brought to complete the 125-member central secretariat and the 601-member central working committee in accordance with the statute.

He also informed that the meeting might set the date for the unity and integration of sister organizations/fronts and the general convention.

'The important thing is that the coordinator/co-coordinator have already stated that the unity general convention will be held within 6 months. For that, conventions must be held from the ward level. Another important matter is the unity and renewal of members. This meeting will determine the criteria for membership and the date of the general convention,' said Jwala.
