CPN (Maoist Centre) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal has claimed the communist government will be formed in Province 2 as well.

He made such remark at a time when the stable communist governments are being formed in all the seven provinces.

“Keep on watching, it has almost been sure that the communist government will be formed in Province 2 as well,” he said, speaking at a programme organised in Pakhribas of Dhankuta on Tuesday.

Upendra Yadav-led Sanghiya Samajbadi Forum Nepal (SSFN) is currently leading the government in Province 2 and the Rastriya Janata Party is a major constituent of the government.

While taking the vote of confidence, the left alliance of CPN-UML and CPN (Maoist Centre) had also lend their support to the Madhes-based party.

Leader Dahal said official announcement of merger between UML and Maoist Centre will be held on April 21. He said that the two taskforces formed to expedite the unification will finalise the issue on Wednesday.

“Preparations are underway to announce the unification between the two parties by organsing a grand mass assembly,” said the former Prime Minister said, adding, “We will move head towards socialism after the announcement of inclusive, democratic and unified party.”

The Maoist supremo said the country would head towards social justice and economic development by drawing the attention of the world.

He said the gap between rich and poor will also be bridged with the development including social justice.
