Kathmandu, 17 November: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli is consulting with his physicians for undergoing next kidney transplant operation. In the meantime, Oli is in high-level consultation for giving responsibility to run party and government as well during his absence.
If Oli undergoes transplant operation, he needs total rest for about three to five months. Therefore, Oli has started the process of handing over authoritie he is holding to other party leaders.
After primary level agreement, the issue will be endorsed from the Party Secretariat, reports Naya Patrika daily.
Of late, Oli has changed his attitude. He has developed good relations with Bamdev Gautam by proposing him vice chairman of the Party. Last week, he tried to end dispute with Madhav Nepal by inviting him for talks.
Oli is thinking to assign Ishwor Pokhrel to look after the PM’s portfolio and hand over the authority of executive party chairmanship to Pushpakamal Dahal Prachanda during his absence.
Likewise, he is trying to reshuffle the cabinet prior to going for the transplant operation.
Oli is trying to oust seven to ten ministers from the present cabinet.
From former UML, Surendra Pandey, Ghanashyam Bhushal, Chhabilal Bishwakarma, Krishna Gopal Shrestha, Mahesh Basnet, Parvat Gurung, Basanta Nembang, Padam Giri, Prem Aale, Yagyaraj Sunwar and from former Maoist Center Janardan Sharma, Pampha Bhushal, Agni Prasad Sapkota, Lekhraj Bhatt, Prabhu Shah are the possible names to be assigned in the cabinet, reports Naya Patrika daily.
