The CPN (Unified Socialist) has withdrawn support extended to Laxman Kishor Chaudhary after an agreement was signed among the four parties of the ruling coalition to make Dirgha Sodari of the Unified Socialist as the chief minister.
The CPN (US) withdrew the support after an agreement was reached among the ruling coalition parties to give chief minister to the Unified Socialist in Sudurpaschim.
CPN (US) leader Dirgha Sodari himself went to the Office of the Province Chief and withdrew the support.
On April 14, Laxman Kishor Chaudhary of the Nagarik Unmukti Party had presented the claim for the post of chief minister with the support of 29 lawmakers—28 of Nepali Congress, four of CPN (US), one of Rastriya Prajatantra Party and seven of his party.
After the CPN (US) withdrew the support to Laxman Kishor, now, he will have the support of only 25 Province Assembly members.
Two out of seven members of his own party, however, have decided not to support him.
There are 52 Province Assembly members in Sudurpaschim after the demise of one. One needs the support of 27 members to be appointed as the chief minister.
