Koirala telephoned President Yadav and told him that it is not necessary to add more time for forming an all-party government, it is learnt. "Consensus couldn't be forged among all parties. A majority government has to be set up now," Koirala said. In today's all party meeting, the UCPN (Maoist) chaired by Pushpa Kamal Dahal and RPP-N headed by Kamal Thapa announced that they would remain in the opposition. The UCPN (M) further said that it would play a constructive role of opposition so as to promulgate a new constitution in the next one year. CPN-UML, the second largest party in the newly elected Constituent Assembly, meanwhile, has said that a coalition government is possible only when the NC presents a clear road map for power sharing. "We can join the government only if our party gets a respectable position in the government," UML senior leader Madhav Kumar Nepal said in a program today. The first period provided by President Yadav to form a consensus government expires today. As per the constitutional provision, President Yadav is expected to provide the second period to form a majority government shortly. -- Peace Is Doable -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Green Youth Movement" group.
