Kathmandu, Jan 21 (RSS): The main ruling Nepali Congress has started a discussion with various political parties excluding the main opposition the CPN (UML) on forging an alliance for the February 7 National Assembly elections.
Prime Minister and NC President Sher Bahadur Deuba failed however to turn up for the discussion. The parties that participated in the discussion include the Sanghiya Samajwadi Forum and Rastriya Janata Party.
The consultation follows voices raised by many NC leaders at Friday’s NC central committee meeting about building an alliance in a bid to secure more seats in the polls.
Despite preliminary discussions regarding this matter, no conclusion was reached, said Samajwadi Forum’s co-chairman Rajendra Shrestha.
“A preliminary dialogue with the NC has begun for election cooperation. An agreement has been reached to meet again after internal homework within party in this regard,” he said.
