Appeal for making their candidates victorious
KATHMANDU: The ruling coalition is set to convene a meeting at the Prime Minister’s Official Residence in Baluwatar this morning, focusing on strategic deliberations surrounding the upcoming National Assembly election and the Truth and Reconciliation bill.
Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal is actively pursuing the bill’s passage in the forthcoming parliamentary session and is engaged in garnering support from both ruling and opposition factions.
Despite being introduced in parliament last year, the bill has faced prolonged deliberations and has been a key priority for PM Dahal.
Previously, the ruling coalition had approached the main opposition party, CPN-UML, seeking endorsement for the bill and offering certain National Assembly seats in return.

Therefore, it is necessary to firmly stand in support of the coalition. We appeal to all the voters to vote for the coalition candidates and make them victorious with overwhelming votes in the election."
