NC, CPM-UML to join national unity Govt in Nepal
A day after Nepal’s Maoists-led Cabinet resigned en masse to pave the way for formation of a national unity Government, main Opposition Nepali Congress on Friday said that it will be part of the next dispensation, which will be formed in a day or two, along with the CPN-UML.
The number of ministers to be incorporated and the Cabinet portfolio will be decided through talks, Nepali Congress Vice-President Ramchandra Poudyal said. “We have proposed a smaller Cabinet with 9-10 ministers with representatives from major and fringe parties.”
His comments came a day after top leaders of UCPN-Maoist, Nepali Congress, CPN-UML and Joint Democratic Madhesi Front signed a five-point deal, asking all incumbent ministers to quit so that a national Government could be formed under Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai.
