PARLIAMENT TO HOST ANOTHER PM RUN-OFF TODAY
KATHMANDU
The Legislative Parliament of the Constitutional Assembly will be hosting probably another fiasco of the Prime Ministerial run-off today. The election will kick off at 3pm at the Constitutional Assembly hall in New Baneshwor.
So far the parliament has hosted thirteen prime ministerial run off. In todays election also, only Nepali Congress candidate Ram Chandra Poudel will be contending. But as NC has failed to garner support from the Maoists, UML and Madhes based parties so far, its candidate Poudel is doomed to face his 14th consecutive defeat in todays edition of the prime ministerial election.
