Mohamed Nasheed, Anni, Chairperson of the main opposition party, MDP, has held discussion at the President’s Office without the consent of the party’s National Governing Council.

Anni met the Minister at President’s Office Aneesa Ahmed who is also the head of the DRP’s parliamentary group on last Wednesday at the President Office. Discussions were held on what both parties can do to complete the constitutional reform by end November this year.

In an interview given to Velidhoo News Service, Minister Aneesa said, “this meeting is a result of Anni’s request made on last Monday to meet the President, however due to prior engagements President could not meet Anni, Anni then said he would meet a presidential appointee, so I met him; during the meetings discussions were held very freely on what both parties can do to achieve deadline of end November for the constitutional reform”.

Velidhoo News Service contacted MDP’s President Dr.Mohamed Munnawar to obtain further details of the meeting. Munnawar said that it is difficult to believe that Anni would hold talks with an appointee of the President.

“Chairperson of the party, on behalf of the party, cannot hold discussions without first meeting the national governing council of the party” said Dr.Munnawar.
