What you should know
Even after completing one year, the government has not been able to work according to people's expectations. Ministers fell out one after the other, two UML ministers were replaced. That's why Prime Minister Oli has been trying to reorganize the cabinet for a few weeks now, but Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba's reluctance has stalled. In this context, Kantipur's conversation with government spokesperson Prithvisubba Gurung:
The cabinet is about to be reorganized ?
To reconstitute the cabinet, there should be an agreement between the power partners Congress and UML. According to the information I have received, that matter has not been discussed .
You said ministers may change when the Cabinet decision is announced on Friday?
The Prime Minister said that he can reconstitute the Cabinet with the consent of the ruling party. But the Prime Minister has not indicated anything about the reorganization.
The prime minister said that when the UML appointed the minister, it was done for one year, didn't it?
The prime minister said that the performance of the minister should be good at that time . It was the intention that a lot of work could be done in one year . Many ministers have reached one year. There must be a performance evaluation. Based on that, if the Prime Minister wants, the Council of Ministers can be reconstituted . Recalling ministers, sending new ones is always open .
It is said that Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba did not agree to reorganize the Council of Ministers?
After the coalition government, the ministers can be reshuffled by agreement between Congress and UML. If the minister is to be changed, Deubaji should name him . In UML, the Prime Minister can recall and appoint new ministers at any time. Congress president Deubaji must agree on whether or not to change Congress ministers because this is a coalition government.
