First, second largest parties formed coalition govt in special situation: Home Minister

 Attariya (Kailali), Sept 3: Minister for Home Affairs, Ramesh Lekhak, has said the first and second largest parties of the country normally do not join hands to form a coalition government.  

At a news conference organized by Press Union Kailali at Dhangadhi Airport today, Home Minister Lekhak mentioned that the CPN (UML) and Nepali Congress have formed a government together during a special situation. 

He shared, "Generally in parliamentary practice, the first and second largest parties of the country do not form a government together. We form the government during the special situation."

In the history, the country has achieved promising results when the both parties headed together, underlined the Home Minister, adding, "If there were important agendas in the country, we had jointly addressed the important agendas of the country."  

Stating that a stable equation had to be created for a stable government, Home Minister Lekhak stressed that the new equation was formed to make the economy dynamic, to establish good governance, to accelerate development construction activities and to establish rule of law in the country. 

"We two parties jointly made constitution. The NC brought communists together to fight against Panchayat system and multi-party democracy was established. The two parties stand together to transform the 10-year armed conflict into peace," added the Home Minister.  (RSS)
