Kathmandu. Amid the threat of the government collapsing, Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba has reached Baluwatar to meet Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli.
Deuba reached Baluwatar at 10 pm on Saturday along with Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak. Finance Minister Bishnu Prasad Poudel was present on behalf of the UML. According to Finance Minister Poudel’s secretariat, the two leaders discussed how to maintain power.
Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Bishnu Prasad Poudel informed that discussions were held on how to make the power partnership more effective and strengthening during the meeting held at the Prime Minister’s residence in Baluwatar. He also informed that the leaders have said that the rumors about the change of government are false and baseless.
The rumors of the government collapsing had received high priority after Congress President Deuba went to Thailand. When asked by reporters at the airport after returning from Thailand, President Deuba said that he was not aware of the government collapsing. Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Arju Deuba had said that the issue of toppling the government of Nepal would not be discussed abroad.
Recently, the dispute over the governance of power has been escalating between the two ruling parties. The government dispute has escalated between the two parties over the appointment of the governor of the Nepal Rastra Bank. The government has reached a point of collapse after middlemen started manipulating the appointment of the governor. President Deuba has repeatedly warned Oli that the government is not in a position to appoint the middleman’s candidate as governor.
Prime Minister Oli has not received support from the Indian government. There is high pressure on President Deuba to become the Prime Minister. The CPN-Maoist Center, the Unified Socialist Party and the National Independent Party have already promised to support Deuba in making him the Prime Minister. Sources claim that Congress President Deuba also raised questions about the issue of handing over power after 14 months in Saturday’s meeting. Second-tier Congress leaders are putting heavy pressure on President Deuba, saying that Prime Minister Oli can extend his term by bringing parties including the Maoists to power after 14 months. .
