The main CPN-UML has urged the government to take back its decision to suspend Nepal Rastra Bank Governor Maha Prasad Adhikari.

He said that it was a shameful and deplorable move of the government to suspend Adhikari.

Organizing a press conference in the Capital on Sunday, the party urged the government to roll back its decision to remove Adhikari.

Speaking at the program, party Vice-Chairman Bishnu Paudel said that the economic condition of the country would further deteriorate if the government did not correct its decision to sack the Nepal Rastra Bank governor.

"We are not talking only about Governor Adhikari but of the entire system," Paudel said.

He claimed that Adhikari was removed for interfering in the wrongdoings of the government.
