PM Oli and NC President Deuba to Hold Crucial Meeting on Governor Appointment; Cabinet Meeting Postponed

Kathmandu, May 19 – Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba are set to hold a crucial meeting shortly. According to a source close to the Prime Minister, the meeting will take place soon at the PM's official residence in Baluwatar.

The main agenda of the discussion is said to be reaching a consensus on the appointment of the new Governor of Nepal Rastra Bank. With ongoing negotiations between UML and the Congress, this meeting is being viewed as highly significant in finalizing the candidate for the central bank’s leadership.

Meanwhile, the regular Monday Cabinet meeting has been postponed. According to the Prime Minister’s Secretariat, today's meeting will not be held.

The postponement of the Cabinet meeting amid ongoing political negotiations suggests that a deal on the Governor’s appointment could be near.
