CPN (Unified Socialist) Chairman Madhav Nepal said that the country’s politics has reached a critical juncture due to the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC).

He said so while talking to journalists at the Parliament building on Friday.

“We urged Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba to postpone the Parliament meeting,” adding, “We told him to have a broader discussion on the contemporary political issues like Millennium Challenge Corporation. We should take the decision in the interest of the nation.”

He further said that the $500 million grant agreement cannot be endorsed in its existing form.
