On 23 Falgun 2053 BS, Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba was removed from office after two MPs from his own party were absent from the vote in the House of Representatives on a motion of confidence.

After Deuba was removed from office due to the non-cooperation of two MPs from the Nepali Congress, a joint government was formed by the UML, Rastriya Prajatantra Party and Sadbhavana Party. On 27 Falgun 2053 BS, the king appointed Lokendra Bahadur Chand, the leader of the RPP parliamentary party, as the Prime Minister.

Some MPs from the Nepali Congress were very angry because Deuba, who became Prime Minister in Bhadra 2052 BS, had to leave not only the government but also the leader of the party's parliamentary party after 18 months. Deuba was removed from the parliamentary party leader and Girija Prasad Koirala was selected. Although Deuba was removed from the party leader with the intention of giving him a new role in the party, his role and responsibilities were not specified.

Deuba's supporters in the party were angry after the situation became chaotic. Deuba, on the other hand, was pained by losing both the posts of Prime Minister and parliamentary party leader at the same time. The RPP's Surya Bahadur Thapa group was expected to support the Congress. That is why Girija Prasad had the intention of leading the Congress again. But with the support of the UML, Chand was appointed Prime Minister by submitting the signatures of 103 people to the king.

There was increasing disagreement in the Congress, which was out of power. The main issue was the understanding that 25 MPs from the Girija Prasad faction of the party played a role against Deuba. On Chaitra 13, 2053, MP Jayaprakash Prasad Gupta, who was said to have led 25 people, spoke for an hour continuously at the Congress parliamentary party meeting and said that the Deuba government had fallen due to his own reasons. In the meeting, the group of 25 people was seen on one side and the Deuba group on the other. Some MPs had said that the controversy would damage the party and that a middle path should be found. In the meeting, MP Gupta defended himself by saying that his group had no role in the collapse of the government. In the meeting, MPs from the Deuba faction complained that they did not get a role after the party leader resigned. Gupta had opposed it after realizing that some expected an acting president. Gupta, who is close to Girija Prasad, had accused the condition of giving an acting president of being 'blackmailing'.

Gupta said that the Deuba faction should not 'blackmail' the president by unnecessarily raising the background that the name of the parliamentary party leader was proposed to Girija Prasad due to the compulsion of the situation in the party. Gupta's intention was that Girija Prasad was unanimously chosen as the party leader after three candidates were nominated. Gupta had alleged that the acting president was being 'blackmailed' by showing his affection for the decision taken under duress.

MP Bal Bahadur KC had angrily retorted that Gupta had made a long speech at the parliamentary party meeting and blamed the Deuba faction in a loud voice. KC, who was from the Deuba faction, had objected to Gupta's loud voice. After KC's objection, both sides had erupted into a ruckus. The Deuba faction had demanded an investigation into the collapse of the government. The ruckus and accusations had led to the meeting being adjourned.

MP Gopalji Jung Shah had accused the party president, general secretary and central members of a well-planned conspiracy to topple the Deuba government. MP Indu Sharma had expressed concern that the Congress first fought to bring democracy, and now one is fighting to defeat the other. He said that the struggle of one person to defeat the other had succeeded in strengthening the party. The lawmakers took turns speaking and defending their respective sides.

The lawmakers had expressed the view that the decentralization bill, which was presented in the parliament, should be discussed in the house and passed as soon as possible. The meeting had decided that local elections should be held only after securing the rights of the villages. Party President and Parliamentary Party Leader Girija Prasad, former party president Krishna Prasad Bhattarai, Vice President Shailaja Acharya, National Assembly President Beni Bahadur Karki, and party general secretaries who were present in the meeting did not participate.
