A day after CPN (UML) chairman Jhala Nath Khanal asked NC vice-president Ram Chandra Poudel and CPN (Maoist) chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal to withdraw their prime ministerial candidacy to create ground for consensus among the parties, deputy prime minister and NC central leader Sujata Koirala has revealed that her party is ready to withdraw its PM candidacy if other parties become ready for "national consensus".

Speaking at a press meet organised by Press Union at the Koirala family residence in Biratnagar of Morang on Friday, Koirala said that her party will withdraw its prime ministerial candidacy for the sake of national consensus and will show others that "it does not lust for government leadership or power".

She said the party is now of the view that it should try to forge consensus and understanding for an all-party government than opting for a majority government and end up making the country hostage to further political turmoil.

Koirala also said that as the past governments formed on the basis of parliamentary majority in the country has not been able to do anything worthwhile for the country and its people and the new government should be formed on the basis of consensus and no political parties should be excluded from it. nepalnews.com

Any other options other than consensus government at least with 3/4 majority might deepen the political crisis.
