KATHMANDU: Province 1 Chief Minister Sherdhan Rai has dismissed Minister for Economic Affairs and Planning Indra Angbo.

CM Rai sacked him accusing the minister of being active in bringing a no-confidence motion against him.

Minister Angbo has been relieved of his post by the Chief Minister according to Article 169 (2) (b) of the Constitution, said Dhruba Subedi, Press Advisor to the Chief Minister.

The Prachanda-Nepal faction of the Nepal Communist Party (NCP) is preparing to bring a no-confidence motion against the Chief Minister.

The Prachanda-Nepal faction had on Friday registered a no-confidence motion against Bagmati Chief Minister Dormani Poudel.
