KATHMANDU, Oct 9: Nepali Congress (NC) and Gachchhadar-led Nepal Democratic Forum have decided to unify. Informed sources said that they will formally announce unification later in the afternoon.

“After the entry of NDF Chairman Bijaya Kumar Gachchhadar into the NC, the party unification campaign will be announced formally,” a Baluwatar source said, adding, “The unification between the two parties has been scheduled for 4 pm.”
