Kathmandu. The split of Nepali Congress, the country's oldest and largest party, has created a stir in another major party, Nepali Congress. The UML leadership, which was hoping and believing that the party close to them would get official status in the Congress, could not sleep last night after the results did not come as they wanted.
The leadership of the UML, which has woven a chain that the old leadership of the Congress will get official status and can even cooperate in the upcoming House of Representatives elections, has been shocked by the decision made by the Election Commission yesterday. In an event yesterday, UML president KP Sharma Oli asked, "Would it be possible to call a convention in the Congress?" and commented that the new leadership of the Congress was "announced from the streets" and the intention and desire of the UML was clear.
Gundu, the unannounced headquarters of UML, which was involved in intensive discussions after the recognition of the new leadership of the Congress, remained silent until 1 o'clock last night. The UML, which had called a secretariat meeting today to decide the candidate for the direct side, suddenly got involved in the discussion yesterday after the possibility of possible cooperation broke down.
