New coalition government will be formed both at federal and province level: Gagan Thapa



KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress (NC) General Secretary Gagan Thapa has claimed that a new coalition will ensure the continuation of incumbent government at federal level and form the province governments in all provinces soon.

Speaking at a program organized in Kathmandu on Tuesday, NC leader Thapa said that since the alliance of December 25 was destroyed, now the government will be formed from the alliance that took part in the general election.

“From the center to the province, the government will now be formed from our alliance,” he said, adding, “Everyone has realized that there was a mistake on December 25 move; an unnatural alliance was formed on December 25 and it was dissolved.”

Thapa lauded Prime Minister and CPN-Maoist Center Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ and CPN-Unified Socialist chairman Madhav Kumar Nepal for their initiations to revive pre-December 25 alliance and claimed that both leaders acted selflessly of late.

“Prachanda has already been a Prime Minister and Madhav Nepal could get the post of President if he agreed to abide by CPN-UML leadership’s guidelines, however, the leaders considered the UML Chair KP Oli’s regressive actions and defense of illegal, unconstitutional moves and decided to confront Oli’s conspiracy,” Thapa said.

He also said that whatever has been agreed upon within the 8-party alliance should be followed and that various meetings are no longer necessary.
