CPN-M leader Mohan Baidhya stated that his party had asked the CPN-UML to lead the government

CPN-M leader Mohan Baidhya stated that his party had asked the CPN-UML to lead the government, if it was unwilling to support the CPN-M led government.

"Given that the NC is adamant to allowing us to have the Defence Ministry in a government led by us, we talked with the CPN-UML about ways to find solutions to this state of deadlock, and we even urged the CPN-UML to lead the government if they wish to," he said referring to the two parties' talks held in Nepali capital Kathmandu on Sunday.

He stressed that the talks on this issue could not progress as the CPN-UML stuck to the necessity of national consensus government.
