KATHMANDU: Shram Sanskriti Party Chairperson Harka Sampang and former minister Sudan Kirati have reached an agreement on party unification.
According to sources, an understanding has been reached to position Kirati as a senior leader in the unified party structure.
Kirati’s aide Hemanta Kirati said a press conference will be held at Hardik Hotel in Bagbazar at 3 pm today to formally announce the unification.
Sudan Kirati, a former Maoist leader, had joined Janardan Sharma’s Pragatisheel Loktantrik Party after the merger of the Nepal Communist Party with the CPN-Maoist Centre and the Unified Socialist Party.
Following the House of Representatives elections held on March 5, he resigned from the party’s ordinary membership and had been serving as a member of its five-member presiding council.
