Kathmandu: Nepal Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’, a day before the trust vote in Parliament, approved a deal to link the Himalayan nation with China by rail under Beijing’s ambitious ‘Belt and Road Initiative’. Quoting government sources, ‘MyRepublica’ news portal said the decision has more operational significance than political significance and is in line with Nepal’s participation in China’s billion-dollar infrastructure project.
‘Yet to be finalized’
The news quoted Communications Minister and government spokesperson Rekha Sharma as saying, “The cabinet meeting held on Thursday approved the agreement to strengthen development cooperation in the construction of ‘Trans-Himalayan Multidimensional Connectivity Network’ between Nepal and China.” It was decided.” However, a minister downplayed its immediate impact, saying, “This is a preliminary decision; details of project implementation and modalities of the BRI are yet to be finalised.”
‘Prachanda’ could not win trust vote
Nepal’s Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ failed to win the trust vote in Parliament on Friday. Last week, the Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) had withdrawn its support to his government. After this development, the way has been paved for the formation of a new government under the leadership of former Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli. In the country’s 275-member House of Representatives, 69-year-old Prachanda got 63 votes, while 194 votes were cast against the trust motion. At least 138 votes were needed to get the trust vote. 258 members of the House of Representatives participated in the voting, while one member abstained. (Language)
