"Dr Baburam Bhattarai's group has already split from the Janata Samajbadi Party and it only remains to be declared officially. We are holding discussions with both factions of this party. The faction led by Upendra Yadav is already a part of the ruling coalition and the party to be formed by Bhattarai will also join the coalition. I am confident that this party will remain within the ruling five-party alliance," he said.


Stating that a Coordination Committee could be formed to forge an electoral front or party unity among the parties with communist background in the ruling coalition, Dahal said that discussions are underway to that end and a final decision is likely soon.


He claimed that the Citizenship Bill has been passed in the parliament due to their efforts and that the passage of the Bill has made it possible for Nepali citizens without citizenship to get citizenship certificates. Dahal claimed that with the passage of the bill the citizenship problem has also been resolved in Nepal.
