NC should join govt: Shashanka Koirala

KATHMANDU: Main opposition Nepali Congress (NC) General Secretary Dr Shashanka Koirala has said the party should be part of the new government to be formed in coalition with the Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Dahal-Nepal group.

Speaking at a press meet organised here today, Koirala said either the NC or the Dahal-Nepal faction would register a vote of no-confidence against Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli.

He went on to say that unseating the current government would be the first and foremost task  in the aftermath of the reinstatement of the House of Representatives. The NC should be part of the new government to ensure the division between the NCP, but if the party got split before that, it would keep no meaning to join the government.

On a different note, the NC general secretary said the party’s general convention would begin on August 23. The general convention will not be put off, he claimed.
