KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress (NC) President Sher Bahadur Deuba is holding a meeting with the top-notch leaders of the Janata Samajwadi Party (JSP) on Friday.
The joint meeting to be held at President Deuba’s residence in Budhanilkantha at 4 pm will dwell on the new power-sharing in the changed political scenario.
The JSP, the fourth largest party in the federal parliament with 34 seats, has been the most decisive for a new power equation after the erstwhile CPN-UML and CPN (Maoist Center) were restored by the Supreme Court, scrapping their unification as the Nepal Communist Party (NCP).
JSP Chairman Upendra Yadav confirmed that his party is holding discussions on the latest political development with the main opposition NC.
According to Bhanu Deuba, the personal aide of the NC President, Deuba will hold an officer-bearers’ meeting prior to the meeting with the JSP. The meeting will take place at 3 pm.
It is learned that Deuba is seeking an alliance with the JSP for the future political course at a time when the latter has been decisive to save and oust the Oli-led government.
