Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda' is to seek a vote of confidence on coming Friday.
The Prime Minister today dispatched a letter to the Federal Parliament Secretariat about his preparations for seeking the confidence vote on July 12, urging the Secretariat to make arrangements towards that end accordingly.
The Prime Minister chose to seek the confidence vote with the major coalition partner CPN (UML) withdrawing its support to the CPN (Maoist Centre)-led government on July 3 following its July 1 agreement with the Nepali Congress to form a new government.
The Prime Minister will be seeking the vote of confidence in accordance with Article 100 (2) of the constitution.
