CPN-UML issues whip against PM Dahal’s confidence vote



KATHMANDU: The CPN-UML has issued a directive to its lawmakers to vote against Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal’s confidence vote.

UML’s Chief Whip, Mahesh Bartaula, instructed all party lawmakers to be present in the parliament for the vote on Friday, July 12.

PM Dahal seeks a vote of confidence following the UML’s withdrawal of support from his government and their new alliance with the main opposition, Nepali Congress.

This coalition significantly diminishes PM Dahal’s chances of securing the vote.

According to the agreement between UML and Nepali Congress, CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli is set to be the next Prime Minister.
