The ruling coalition has urged the main opposition CPN-UML to end the House obstruction. 

During a meeting of the senior leaders of the ruling alliance held at Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba’s official residence in Baluwatar on Thursday, they discussed contemporary political issues and ongoing House obstruction. 

The main opposition CPN-UML has been obstructing the House for the past few months demanding resignation of Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota or expulsion of 14 lawmakers including Madhav Kumar Nepal.

On the occasion, Prime Minister Deuba also thanked CPN (Maoist Centre) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal and CPN (Unified Socialist) Chairman Madhav Kumar Nepal for helping to endorse the $500 million grant compact from the Parliament, government spokesperson and Minister for Communications and Information Technology Gyanendra Bahadur Karki said. 

The ruling parties have also decided to hold talks with their party leaders about forging electoral alliance in the upcoming local level elections.
