Nepal Postpones Constituent Assembly Elections And Public Holiday

Sources: BBC World and Nepal public holidays. Elections for Nepal's first constituent assembly in Nepal, which were scheduled for November 22, 2007, have been postponed after ruling parties and former Maoist rebels failed to break their political deadlock. No new date has yet been set for the vote. A public holiday was expected to be declared on that occasion (see our post of July 24).
