Kathmandu: Nepal Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ will face a majority test in the House of Representatives on July 12. It was announced on Thursday. Earlier this week, two major political parties withdrew support from the coalition government led by Prachanda. The Prime Minister has written a letter to the Parliament Secretary requesting to arrange voting for the majority test.

What does the Constitution say

The Kathmandu Post report said, “Dahal has requested a majority test under Article 100 (2) of the Constitution, which states that if the party led by the Prime Minister splits or a political party withdraws support from the coalition government, the Prime Minister will have to present a proposal to prove majority in the House of Representatives within 30 days.”

Agreement reached between these parties
Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba and Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist-Leninist (CPN-UML) President KP Sharma Oli reached an agreement on Monday to form a coalition government. It is noteworthy that in the 275-member House of Representatives, the largest party is the Nepali Congress with 89 members while CPN-UML has 78 members. Prachanda’s Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist Center (CPN-MC) has 32 MPs.

13 governments in 16 years

The 10-seat CPN-Unified Socialist (CPN-US) has said that it will vote in favor of the government led by Prachanda. Despite this support, Prachanda has the support of only 63 members of the House of Representatives. He will need 138 votes to prove majority. Prachanda (69) will participate in the majority test for the fifth time in his tenure of about one and a half years. Nepal has had 13 governments in the last 16 years, which shows the fragile state of the country’s political system.
