KESHAV P. KOIRALA KATHMANDU: Senior-most Deputy Prime Minister Bijaya Kumar Gachhadar's party Madhesi Janadhikar Forum-Democratic has given a hard blow to beleaguered Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli with a decision to forsake the coalition government and vote in favour of the no-confidence motion against the Prime Minister. The deliberations on the no-confidence motion is scheduled to conclude in the Parliament tomorrow. The motion would be put to vote after the Prime Minister's  response.

The MJF-D further said it accepted the norms of the Parliamentary system, taking into consideration the fact that the Oli-led coalition government had been reduced to minority. Gachhadar, the MJF-D's chairman, informed the Prime Minister about the party's decision to withdraw support to the government, recall the ministers and vote in favour of the no-confidence motion. CPN Maoist Centre, a major partner in the Oli-led coalition, had first pulled out of the government and joined forces with the main opposition Nepali Congress to challenge the Prime Minister with no-trust vote.
