KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress president Sher Bahadur Deuba on Wednesday asked PM Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda to step down and pave the way for the formation of a new government after the nation’s two largest political parties struck a power-sharing deal to oust the former guerrilla leader.

“The Prime Minister should resign after the largest parties NC and UML said that they would form a new government together,” Deuba said.

Deuba and CPN-UML chairman KP Sharma Oli inked a power-sharing deal on Monday night to form a new government.
