KATHMANDU : Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli is to hold a press conference at the latter’s office at Baluwatar.

The press conference is scheduled to begin at 12:00 this afternoon.

Oli’s press conference comes in the wake of discussions and meetings being held by opposition parties for the formation of a new government.

President Bhandari on Thursday invited the political party leader to stake claim for the formation of an alternative government as per Article 76(5) shortly after Prime Minister Oli decided not to seek a vote of confidence in parliament.
