Prime Minister Sho Bahadur Devuba and Central Maoist Party chief Pushpa Kamal Dahal on Saturday agreed to resume their rule after the ruling coalition won more seats in Nepal’s polls held on the 20th.
With about 86 percent of the votes counted, the Devuba-led Nepali Congress Party has secured 52 seats and the Central Maoist Party has secured 17 seats. Apart from this, other parties that lost the alliance have also won more than 14 constituencies.
Ganesh Shah, a member of the Central Maoist Party’s Standing Committee, expressed hope that the Janata Samajwadi Party, which holds 5 seats, and the Madhesi Party are expected to support them.
