SHARADHAYA OF 601 LEGISLATORS CONDUCTED

Kathmandu, 27 Jan.: A bhramin of Sharma descent Thursday conducted a public communal sharadhya [an annual ritual for the dead] at Narayanghad in Chiwtan amid cheers of a large crowd.
He conducted similar rituals twice in the far-West, including
Nepalgunj.
Sharma will repeat the ritual in front of the CA building, he said.
The date for the ritual in front of CA building in the capital hasn’t been announced.
The irate Sharma was protesting what he called the unconstitutional
extension by one year by legislators by one year of a two-year elected tenure.
Only four months remain to promulgate a constitution amid fears and concerns the second deadline won’t be met either.
Chairman of the constitution drafting committee Nilambar Acharya said
Thursday ideological differences between parties were making his task ‘challenging’.
