KATHMANDU, April 27 (Xinhua) -- Nepali Prime Minister Prachanda on Monday said the Chief of Army Staff (CoAS) Rookmangud Katawal will be sacked to maintain people's supremacy in the country, the Nepali national news agency RSS reported.

Addressing a program organized here to hand over the Bardibas-Banepa roadway in Sindhulimadhi, some 80 km east of Nepali capital Kathmandu, Prime Minister Prachanda said, "The CoAS has to be sacked as he challenged people's supremacy and snubbed government's directives again and again."

Prachanda, also the chairman of the ruling party, the Unified Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) (UCPN-M) further said the agreement to this regard was being made with coalition party, the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist) (CPN-UML) and the largest opposition party Nepali Congress.
