UML tells Lamichhane to change PM and reshuffle govt

Nepal's CPN-UML party has formally called on Rabi Lamichhane, the chairman of the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP), to initiate an immediate government reshuffle. The directive, issued during a session of the House of Representatives, specifically includes the Prime Minister Balendra Shah in the proposed changes.

Ram Bahadur Thapa, the parliamentary party leader for CPN-UML, articulated the party's stance, urging Lamichhane to take the lead in this process. Thapa emphasized that Lamichhane, in his capacity as RSP chair, is positioned to spearhead the necessary adjustments within the current government coalition.

The CPN-UML's push for a reshuffle suggests a desire to alter the current political dynamics or address perceived inefficiencies within the administration. The specific reasons behind this demand and the potential implications for the government's stability remain subjects of political discussion in Nepal.
