Nepali Congress has postponed district conventions until February 13 following the death of party President Sushil Koirala.

A Central Working Committee meeting of the party decided to mourn Koirala’s death for three days and fly the party flag half mast for 13 days. No official programmes will be conducted by the party during this period.

The meeting, however, has not taken any decisions about its upcoming General Convention. “The General Convention will not be postponed. But its scheduled may be altered by a couple of days,” said leader Ram Sharan Mahat.
