KATHMANDU: A meeting of the UML Karnali Province Parliamentary Party (PP) has directed three ministers participating in the provincial government to resign immediately.
A meeting of the Karnali UML PP Friday decided to recall UML lawmakers Amar Bahadur Thapa, Kurmaraj Shahi and Nanda Singh Budha from the government, said Chief Whip Gulav Jung Shah.
Lawmaker Prakash Jwala, along with the three ministers, crossed the floor on April 16 and gave a vote of confidence to Chief Minister Mahendra Bahadur Shahi going against party directive.
