KATHMANDU, Feb 21: KP Sharma Oli and Pushpa Kamal Dahal are meeting at the Prime Minister’s Residence, Baluwatar to finalize ministries for Maoist Center.
Following a seven point agreement between CPN UML and Maoist Center, the latter had decided to join the Oli led government. As a result of delay in party merger, Maoist Center had not sent its ministers during the swearing in ceremony of KP Oli as the country’s 38th prime minister last week.
