Kathmandu, Nov 21 (PTI) Nepal's Maoists today decided to end its blockade of the parliament so as to allow the government to pass the crucial budget, but planned to go ahead with the next phase of their agitation to dislodge the coalition in a dispute over "civilian supremacy".
The former rebels, after a key meeting of the politburo of the Unified CPN (Maoist), decided to allow the parliament to function for three days so as to facilitate the passage of the 2009/10 budget.

"Our consistent efforts to find a solution failed to lead to any result," Maoist Chairman Prachanda said.

"However, being responsible to the country, people, security persons and others, we have decided to let the parliament open for three days to pass the budget," he told mediapersons after the party?s central committee meeting.
