September 16th, 2008 - 4:18 pm ICT by ANI Kathmandu, Sept 16 (ANI): Differences among the parties have created snags in finalising the Constituent Assembly Regulations leading to delay in constitution making process in Nepal.
There has been differences on the number of members in the constitution drafting committee for which the major parties including the Maoists, the Nepali Congress and the UML suggest a 15 member team while fringe parties demand 25 members to ensure representation for all parties in the constituent assembly.
