Kathmandu, Nepal: CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli has demanded to announce the date for local elections at the earliest.
Oli, who is also the leader of the main opposition party, demanded to the government to announce the local body election while welcoming newcomers from various parties to the UML at the party central office, Dhumbarahi on Thursday.
The party had organized a function to welcome 92 leaders and cadres of various parties into the UML.
Addressing the function, Oli demanded to announce the date of the local body election without specifying the situation that local bodies are not fixed yet as per the new constitution of Nepal.
As the transition of the country will be ended only after successful completion of elections at local, provincial and federal, we demand the government to announce the date for the local body election as soon as possible, Oli said.
