CM Jamkattel announces resignation

Makawanpur, July 21: Shalikram Jamkattel, Chief Minister of Bagamati Province, has announced to resign from the post today.

As he said, he will tender his resignation to Bagamati Province Chief Yadav Chandra Sharma today.     

Jamkattel-led government fell into minority with the formation of a new political equation involving two major political parties the Nepali Congress (NC) and the CPN (UML) in the centre. With this, the UML withdrew its support to the CPN (Maoist Centre)-led government in Bagamati. (RSS)
