The government has cautioned Kathmandu-based ambassadors not to show "unnecessary concerns about Nepal's internal affairs".
After briefing diplomats about constitution-writing process at Hotel Radisson on Thursday, Finance Minister Ram Sharan Mahat told journalists: "We have asked them not to breach diplomatic norms."
It is learnt that Mahato's caution was prompted by the statement issued by the international community urging the government to garner a consensus on the constitution. On Wednesday, UN resident coordinator in Nepal Jimmy Mcgoldric, issued a press statement on behalf of the international community.
'We call upon them (political parties) to provide forward-looking leadership in the larger national interest and to continue constitutional negotiations in a spirit of flexibility and urgency,' the statement read.
Finance Minister Mahat and Foreign Affairs Minister Mahendra Bahadur Pandey also briefed ambassadors about the government's last-minute efforts to forge a consensus on the new constitution.
Ministers Mahat and Pandey are also reported to have expressed objections to a meeting between the EU delegates and CK Raut, the man who was recently charged and repeatedly arrested for making statements calling for the secession of the Madhes. The government has reportedly received information that the EU delegates recently went to Chitwan to meet Raut.
The ambassadors of India and China also met Prime Minister Sushil Koirala at Baluwatar on Thursday, the day of the deadline on the new constitution.
