Executive Branch Reform – 2012
2012
Intermediate Implementation 
Major political parties failed to resolve issues related to executive branch reform. Three main political parties offered three different modalities: the Maoists advocated for presidential system, the NC for parliamentary system and the CPN-UML for mixed form of government system with directly elected president and house of representative elected prime minister. In May, parties involved in the negotiation process agreed on mixed model with parliamentary supremacy.1 This agreement however did not last long as parties failed to draft the constitution through the Constituent Assembly.
