Makawanpur: – With the UML and the CPN (Maoist) having to ‘revive’ and return to normalcy, there is more confusion in the Bagmati state government. The former Dahal-Nepal faction had filed a no-confidence motion against Chief Minister Dormani Poudel in the state assembly. Poudel’s reluctance to face a no-confidence motion will only add to the confusion.

The state assembly meeting convened for Phalgun-5 has been postponed until further notice. Another court order has left the no-confidence motion uncertain as to how to proceed now, with the Supreme Court’s decision to reconstitute parliament to remove the state’s confusion. The Congress, which was considered decisive, had not made a concrete decision. The required number of members did not reach the supporters and defenders of the no-confidence motion.

The then CPN-UML had a single majority in the state assembly. UML has 58 members in the 110-member state assembly. Paudel had defeated Ashtalakshmi Shakya in the state parliamentary party. Paudel got 34 votes while Shakya got 24 votes. A no-confidence motion has been registered against Paudel with the signatures of 22 MPs of the then Maoist center, proposing Shakya as the chief minister of the state. A no-confidence motion was signed by 45 MPs of the former Dahal-Nepal faction on Poush-10.

The then leader of the Maoist Central Parliamentary Party, Shalikram Jammakattel, said that he was confused after the decision of the Supreme Court. “It remains to be seen how politics will move forward. The motion of no confidence that we have registered remained undecided. If there is a need to withdraw support, we will do so, ”he said. This News has been published in today’s Kantipur Daily.
