'Long March' pushed for a month
Damak, June 14: National Front for Democracy (NFD), a coalition of Bhutanese political parties struggling for the rights and respectful repatriation of the exiled Bhutanese has said on Wednesday that it has postponed the Long March campaign for another one month.
In a statement, its chairman Thinley Penjor said, the program has been postponed taking into consideration the developing political scenario in Nepal and India.
The campaign was withheld until June 15 after reaching an agreement with the West Bengal authority that India would take initiatives for solution of the protracted crisis.
US and Indian embassy in Kathmandu have invited the leaders to hold talks for finding solution of the crisis through dialogue.
The statement further said that the repatriation campaign had been postponed for a month in the light of India's positive remark on the issue. The coalition also urged exiled Bhutanese to wait for a month. Bhutan News Service
