Maoist Center holding SC meeting today, likely to withdraw support to govt

KATHMANDU: The CPN (Maoist Center) has called a meeting of its Standing Committee today.

The meeting to be held at the party’s central office in Paris Danda at 11 am is likely to withdraw its support to the Prime Minister KP Oli-led government, according to the party’s Standing Committee member Ganesh Sah.

“The party is likely to withdraw its support to the Oli-led government, Sah told Khabarhub.

“We will also discuss the technical aspects of how to move the no-confidence motion against the Prime Minister,” he added.

According to him, Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal “Prachanda” will brief the SC members about the informal understandings on government formation with the Nepali Congress and Janata Samajbadi Party in the meeting.

The Maoist party is preparing to withdraw its support to the government after Nepali Congress decided to seek Prime Minister Oli’s resignation on Friday.

It should be noted that Prachanda has on Saturday said the political course would take a new shape and that a new government would be formed in a few days.
