CM Sodari is slated to undergo a vote of confidence on Thursday.

“Our parliamentary party meeting has endorsed the decision to support CM Sodari,” stated UML parliamentary party leader Rajendra Singh Rawal.

The decision by UML follows Unified Socialist’s decision to support CM Hikmat Karki of UML in Koshi Province.
