Nepal Maoists quit Govt

Nepal's Maoist former rebels quit the interim government on Tuesday and vowed to disrupt preparations for historic elections in November unless the Himalayan nation's monarchy was abolished immediately.The move is a major setback to last year's peace deal in which the rebels ended a decade-old insurgency and agreed on elections for a special assembly to decide the fate of the monarchy.
