The Nepali Congress seems to be a confused party. While it did hold demonstrations in all 165 constituencies across the country on December 28 in protest of KP Sharma Oli government’s move of dissolving the House of Representatives, the party president, Sher Bahadur Deuba, appears to have reached an understanding with Oli.

On December 29, while receiving a memorandum from All Nepal Women’s Union, a sister organisation affiliated to the Nepal Communist Party, Oli declared that there is zero possibility of restoring the House. While justifying his House dissolution move, Oli urged the women leaders to prepare for the elections declared for April 30 and May 10–a year and a half earlier than schedule.

According to a woman leader, in response to a query “what happens if the House is restored”, Oli said that a coalition government will be formed under Deuba’s leadership.
