Kathmandu: A top Maoists` panel in Nepal
has agreed to show "maximum flexibility" in a bid to end the
political deadlock between the government and the former
rebels that has stalled the landmark peace process.

"We have agreed to show maximum flexibility," senior
Maoist leader Narayan Kaji Shhrestha said after an informal
meeting of the Central Committee of the UCPN (Maoist).

The top panel of the Maoist today met informally to
assess the political situation and set the agenda for the
upcoming meeting of the party’s Standing Committee.

The Maoists have been blocking the Parliament and
organising protest rallies in the capital since Prachanda
suddenly resigned on May 4 as prime minister after President
Ram Baran Yadav reinstated General Rukmangad Katawal, the then
Army Chief dismissed by Maoists supremo.

Shrestha said the Maoists are even ready to
"completely change" their resolution against the President
registered in the Parliament which most other parties have
rejected.

"We are ready to table a new, joint resolution if
other parties agree," he explained. “However, the bottom-line
is that the president’s move should be touched upon in some
form," he was quoted as saying by the myrepublic online today.
