Member of the ruling coalition, the Unified Socialist party is in turmoil for the past few days after the party decided to recall four ministers and send new faces to the cabinet.

A total of 10 leaders had earlier signed the eight-point demand expressing dissatisfaction with the leadership's recommendation for the reshuffle of the cabinet. Six of the signatories which included former Minister Ale, had withdrawn their signatures while the rest are yet to withdraw their signatures and are making a last-ditch effort to secure their posts.

The party's Central Committee meeting held on Saturday reiterated the party's position that the ministers would be recalled from the cabinet and new faces would be inducted into the Deuba-led cabinet.

The 10 lawmakers, including four ministers, had asked the party leadership to hold a meeting of the Parliamentary Party to decide the fate of the ministers. Meanwhile, the fourth central committee meeting of the Unified Socialist endorsed the party Secretariat's decision to recall four ministers from the Cabinet. (ANI)
