Sudurpaschim CM meets NC President Deuba after losing support from Nagarik Unmukti Party



DHANGADHI: Sudurpaschim Province Chief Minister Kamal Bahadur Shah met Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba on Saturday, a day after his government lost the support of the Nagarik Unmukti Party.

CM Shah visited Deuba at his Budhanilkantha residence in Kathmandu, though no official details about the meeting have been made public. His press coordinator, Dammar Bam, confirmed that they discussed the recent political developments in the province.

On Friday, the Nagarik Unmukti Party withdrew its support from Shah’s government. Despite this, the ruling coalition in Sudurpaschim remains mathematically unaffected, meaning Shah still holds a majority.

Shah became Chief Minister with backing from the Nepali Congress after the party reached a seven-point agreement with CPN-UML at the federal level, leading to power-sharing arrangements in several provinces.
