Bagmati Province Chief Minister Resigns, New Government Formation Faces Hurdles Amidst Internal Party Dispute

Hetauda. With the resignation of Bagmati Province Chief Minister Indra Bahadur Baniyan from his post, the constitutional process for forming a new government has begun. However, the internal dispute within the CPN-UML, which is preparing to lead the government, has made it difficult for the left alliance to form a new government.

Province Chief Deepak Prasad Devkota has called for claims to be submitted for the appointment of a new Chief Minister on Monday in accordance with Article 168 (2) of the Constitution. The deadline for the Province Assembly member who can secure a majority with the support of two or more parties has been set for Thursday, Bhadra 4, at 4 PM.
