Many options to form govt, coalition also possible: UML leader Bhusal



KATHMANDU: CPN-UML Deputy General Secretary Ghanshyam Bhusal has said that there were many options to form a government now and a coalition government could also form through consensus among political parties after the Supreme Court reinstated the parliament.

The Supreme Court (SC) on Monday restored the House of Representatives and ordered Nepali Congress (NC) President Sher Bahadur Deuba to become the Prime Minister.

Commenting on the SC verdict on the parliament dissolution case, he said, “The UML’s took missteps by dissolving the parliament time and again. Now we are committed not to repeat the mistake.” Stating that decisions would now be taken seriously as it was important to protect the parliament and the constitution, he added, “The protection of the constitution meant to protect the freedom, independence and communist movement.”

“Our move to protect the parliament was politically correct,” he said, adding, that unity of the party was also right and talks would continue to save the parliament and the constitution.

“We will talk to the NC, Maoists, Upendra Yadav faction, and other alliance members. He was of the view that a consensus government was also likely and there were many options to form the government after the court decision.

“A government can be formed either without the UML or with a coalition by including the UML and all other parties,” Bhusal said.
