The ruling CPN (Maoist Center) has decided to file the party's candidacy for the post of National Assembly Chairperson.
The Standing Committee (SC) meeting convened at the party central office in Paris Danda took the decision to this effect, said party spokesperson Agni Prasad Sapkota.
Party Vice-Chairperson Sapkota said, "Although there will be discussions in this regard, we will reach a conclusion through consultations. At present, our party has decided to file its candidacy for the National Assembly Chairperson."
He shared that most of the SC members voiced that the CPN (Maoist Center) should stake a claim on the post. The post of NA Chairperson would remain vacant from March 3. Other coalition partners in the government are also claiming their stake on the post.
