Kathmandu, July 20: The major opposition Nepali Congress has argued that new prime minister could be elected as per the provision in Article 298 and Rule No 49 of Legislature-Parliament Regulation.
The central committee meeting of the party held at Sanepa on Tuesday concluded that there was no constitutional complexity, said Krishna Poudel, Chief Secretary of the party office. After this government lost majority, the Parliament Regulation has clear provision on the formation of the new government. None needs to be confused on it,” he stressed.
The party expressed concern over various decisions of the government taken even after a no-trust motion was registered against the Prime Minister at the parliament.
Most of the leaders speaking in the meeting stressed that the Oli-led government must stop political appointments and taking other decisions. They also discussed how the imminent change of government could be taken normal in the national politics.
Chief Secretary Poudel further said the party was for strictly implementing the agreement made with the CPN (Maoist-Centre), continuing discussion with all parties including the CPN (UML) for the effective implementation of the constitution and post-quake reconstruction.
Moreover, the party concluded that though it had no agreement with agitating Dr Govind KC on the political demands it support for the demands on reforms in the medical education sector. The party is to draw the government attention to make efforts to stop KC’s agitation by addressing his demands relating to the reforms in the medical education sector.
The party also demanded that the government immediately provide relief and assistance to the families affected badly by the landside and floods.
Meanwhile, the party passed a proposal on condolence to the family members of late Dil Prasad Neupane, former central member of Nepal Student Union and former general convention representative.
