Nepal Communist Party legal dispute may invite more political chaos Kathmandu Post
Kathmandu, Jan. 27 The Nepal Communist Party may have split in two, politically, but going by the Election Commission s Sunday decision-or indecision for that matter, the party is still one-technically and legally.
The commission on Sunday said that since both factions-one led by Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and the other by Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Madhav Kumar Nepal-failed to follow the party statute and the provisions of the Political Parties Act-2017, it only recognises the Nepal Communist Party which was formed in May 2018 with Oli and Dahal as its two chairmen.
