A meeting held in Balkot has decided to make CPN (Maoist Center) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal the prime minister. The meeting has agreed to give prime minister to the CPN (Maoist Center) and president to the CPN-UML. The meeting of CPN-UML, CPN (Maoist Center), Rastriya Swatantra Party and Janamat Party has decided to make Dahal the prime minister.

Before the four-party meeting, UML Chairman Oli and Rastriya Prajatantra Party Chairman Rajendra Lingden had reached an agreement for power sharing.

Dahal had reached Balkot after the meeting of the ruling coalition failed to yield a decisive outcome. With this, the Nepali Congress, which had become the largest party from the election, will be the main opposition party.
