- The coalition government in Nepal collapsed
- Many MPs applied to form a new party
- Pushpa Kamal Dahal Pranchad’s government in danger
One of the Communist Party coalition parties led by Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal Pranchad in Nepal, the Janata Samajwadi Party and others have split. Along with the separation, they have also applied to the Election Commission to form a new party. Aji called for a new party under the leadership of the party president. This situation happened when the party president is on a foreign trip.
The Election Commission on Monday officially recognized the Ashok Rai-led Janata Samajwadi Party (JSP) as a new political party. Sources said that Rai has registered a new party on the advice of Prime Minister Prachanda to take on Yadav. Nepal Congress (NC) President Sher Bahadur Deuba is trying to topple the Prime Minister Prachanda-led government. For this, the opposition Nepali Congress under the leadership of Madhav Kumar Nepal and the ruling party coalition CPN-Unified Socialists have come together.
Coalition parties appeal for reconsideration
The ruling coalition of CPN-UML and CPN (Maoist Centre) led by KP Sharma Oli has managed to retain a narrow majority in Parliament with recent political developments. Leaders of the group led by Rai claimed that they had to rebel against the party leadership as Yadav was running the party in an autocratic manner. Pradeep said that the President ran the party unilaterally and disrespected the MPs. Forest and Environment Minister Nawal Kishore Sah Sudi alleged that a new organization was being prepared after the Speaker tried to break the ruling coalition. Naval Kishore also left the party. He said, “We have taken this decision for the stability of the present government. The party president (Yadav) is against this alliance but we
We will continue to support this government.
A threat to the government
CPN-Maoist Center central member Sunil Kumar Manandhar said the split in the JSP-N would not affect the stability of the government amid speculation that the alliance could sway the government. He also said that unless the CPN-Unified Socialists and JSP-N withdraw support from the government, there is no need to seek a vote of confidence in the overwhelming government. Meanwhile, party spokesperson Manish Suman said MLAs alone do not make a party. Most of the party leaders are with us. He said many of the 300-member Central Committee had left the party. The split follows long-standing discontent within the party.
