CPN (Maoist Centre) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal has said that the country will head towards the path of development and prosperity after the unification of two communist parties.

Saying that the two left parties—CPN-UML and CPN (Maoist Centre)—will be unified within a couple of days on the basis of recently signed seven-point agreement, the former Prime Minister said that the unification would lead Nepali people towards the path of prosperity.

Speaking at a press conference jointly organised by Press Chautary and Press Centre at Bardaghat in Nawalaparasi on Thursday, Maoist Centre Chairman Dahal said the two parties have already reached an understanding on government formation and allocation of ministerial portfolios. He added that the government has failed to induct more ministers in the Cabinet as initiatives are underway to rope in more parties in the government.

Moreover, the Maoist Supremo said that good governance is essential to bring changes in the lives of people.

He further said that the government of left parties would root out the corruption which is spreading like an uncontrolled virus in state bodies, security agencies and judiciary.
