Kantipur Report

KATHMANDU, May 31 - Maoist Chairman Prachanda has warned Kantipur Publications of serious consequences if it continued to criticize his party.

“Now we will no longer tolerate criticism as we have already been elected by the people,” the Maoist chief said while addressing a mass meet organized by his party at the Open Air Theater on Friday.

“You (journalists from Kantipur Publications) did well to continuously criticize the Maoists before the [10 April CA] elections. Else, the polls would not have taken place at all.”  Prachanda further said, “But we will no longer tolerate such things because we have become the largest party”.
