PM Oli calls Secretariat meeting for Friday following pressures



KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has called a Secretariat Committee (SC) meeting for Friday following pressures by a majority of SC members.

The SC meeting has been scheduled for Friday afternoon after five top-notch leaders including NCP Executive Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal piled pressure on Oli to call the meeting.

According to General Secretary Bishnu Paudel, the SC meeting has called for Friday at 4 pm in line with the agreement between chairman duo Oli and Dahal.

Dahal had been urging Prime Minister Oli to call party meetings to resolve the widening intra-party dispute.

The majority of SC members had demanded the meetings after Oli warned that he would split the party if the meetings were convened without consensus.

Dahal-Nepal faction has been dissatisfied with Oli after latter unilaterally recommended ambassadors, reformed cabinet, brought no confidence motion against chief minister of Karnali Pradesh and held a meeting with the chief of the Research and Analysis Wing, the foreign intelligence agency of India.
