Dissident leaders of Dr Baburam Bhattarai-led Naya Shakti Nepal are holding a separate meeting on Thursday.

Leaders Devendra Paudel, Mahendra Paswan, Bamdev Chhetri, Kumar Paudel, Ram Chandra Jha and Pasang Sherpa along other leaders are holding the meeting at Bagbazaar this afternoon.

Leader Pasang Sherpa said that they are holding the separate meeting to discuss the ways to take the party ahead.

He said that those who have common ideological and organisational views to take the party ahead can hold separate meeting.

Sherpa urged all not to think that they are quitting the party.

Dissatisfaction among the leaders arose after the dissolution of Central Working Committee a few days ago.
