Kathmandu, Nov 2 (PTI) Nepal government today said it has no plan to declare a state of emergency or to deploy Army to crush the Maoists in the country, even as the former rebels launched a fresh agitation to oust the Madhav Kumar Nepal led 22-party ruling alliance from power.

"No situation has arisen yet that demands declaring emergency or mobilising the Army against the former rebels," Minister for Commerce and Supplies Rajendra Mahato told PTI.

He said the government will take steps as and when necessary.



He said the Maoists should follow legal procedures if they wanted to form a new government by dislodging the present coalition instead of going to the street. This shows their authoritarian mentality and also goes against the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, he said.
