Why is there a delay in the expansion of the cabinet?
Home Minister Lamichhane stated that it will take some time because there is a wide debate about cabinet expansion.
KATHMANDU: The subject expert will be appointed as a minister in the power-sharing coalition of seven parties.
On Thursday, the top leaders of the partner parties met at the Prime Minister’s Residence Baluwatar to discuss the appointment of subject experts as ministers.
Rabi Lamichhane, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Home Affairs, stated that discussions are taking place about the need for experts in ministerial affairs when the cabinet is expanded. ‘ The parties will now send ministers to the government based on their qualifications. ‘The latest trend is that a person holding one ministry immediately takes over another,’ he explained. We’re trying to come to an agreement to reduce it.’
Home Minister Lamichhane stated that it will take some time because there is a wide debate about cabinet expansion. “There has been no debate about whether the vote of confidence is ahead or behind schedule. It is possible to communicate in reverse.
However, we have not taken that date into account,’ he added. ‘Discussions are ongoing to combine the main constitutional posts from the President in a package. Nowhere in our state. The state does, however, have a presence of the power partner parties. As a result, efforts are being made to reach an agreement on the package from the President to the state’s Chief Minister.’
The UML has ten seats in the 25-member Council of Ministers, including the Prime Minister, while the Maoists have seven. The RSP and JSP each have three claims in the ministries, while the Janamat Party has two. RPP has claimed three ministries in the government and two in civil liberties.
Three independent MPs are said to have claimed the ministry one by one. Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ formed an eight-member cabinet on Monday.
