KATHMANDU: In a recent political development, parties, including the Maoist Center, CPN-UML and Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP), have reached a consensus to form a coalition government.

It should be noted that CPN-UML Chairman Oli engaged in two separate meetings with PM Dahal on Sunday.

The discussions played a crucial role in shaping the new coalition, the source said.
