Issuing a statement today, Sher Bahadur Tamang, Secretary of the Central Office of CPN UML, has said that only the general secretary of the party on the advice of the chairperson is allowed to call for a meeting so it has asked party members not to attend the meeting called by those members against whom the party had initiated disciplinary action.
