The dust has finally settled in the ruling party–or at least it appears so.

After months of squabbling, party chairs KP Sharma Oli, also the prime minister, and Pushpa Kamal Dahal, former prime minister, have decided to bury the hatchet. The six-member task force the two chairs had formed submitted its report on August 22, basically addressing the concerns of both the leaders–that Oli will lead the government for the full term and Dahal will have an “expanded role” as party chair.

The party has called its Secretariat meeting for Saturday to discuss the task force’s report, which has made some other recommendations as well, including the party’s general convention in April and a Cabinet reshuffle.

Party insiders say the two chairs have basically returned to the November 2019 deal, which said Oli would lead the government for full five years and Dahal would command the party.
