Citing the postponement of the 11th general convention at the eleventh hour, some NSU cadres have been staging the fast-unto-death at the Nepali Congress central office, Sanepa, from September 13, demanding to hold the general convention soon. 

Issuing a press statement, NSU President Ranjit Karna stated that the general convention was postponed with the decision to announce the fresh date within a week by publishing the name lists of the general convention representatives.
