CPN-UML leader and provincial assembly member Sherdhan Rai has claimed that his party Chairman KP Sharma Oli will become the next prime minister and will lead the party after unification with CPN (Maoist Centre).

Speaking at an interaction organised the Capital on Wednesday, former Communication Minister Rai said that a new government would be formed before the party unification.

“The two parties will be unified soon. We are doing home work for the same,” said leader Rai.

Moreover, he said that the elections process will come to an end after the completion of National Assembly (NA) election. “We are preparing for the National Assembly election at present,” he further said.

Meanwhile, he made it clear that the new government would be formed in the last week of February.

Rai said that there is no doubt that the new government would be formed under the leadership of party Chairman Oli.

Saying that the new government would bring stability and economic prosperity in the country, he said that the government would work as per the aspirations of people.

He said that the new government would move ahead by taking the main opposition into confidence.

“We want to take the opposition parties into confidence to obtain economic prosperity in the country. We will make them a part of journey to development and prosperity,” leader Rai said.
