Ruling coalition gears up for meeting to discuss NA Election, TRC bill



KATHMANDU: The ruling coalition is set to convene a meeting at the Prime Minister’s Office Residence in Baluwatar this morning, focusing on strategic deliberations surrounding the upcoming National Assembly (NA) election and the Truth and Reconciliation bill.

Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal is actively pursuing the bill’s passage in the forthcoming parliamentary session and is engaged in garnering support from both ruling and opposition factions.

Despite being introduced in parliament last year, the bill has faced prolonged deliberations and has been a key priority for PM Dahal.

Previously, the ruling coalition had approached the main opposition party, CPN-UML, seeking endorsement for the bill and offering certain National Assembly seats in return.

However, the UML rejected the proposal and declared its intention to independently contest the election against the ruling coalition.

The National Assembly election is scheduled for January 25.
