KATHMANDU: The Nepali Congress (NC) is set to join the Madhesh Province government, taking charge of four ministries, including the Ministry of Finance. Chief Minister Satish Singh confirmed the agreement, stating that the NC will participate by leading four ministries and that the oath ceremony will be held at 5 o’clock today.
The NC will oversee the Ministry of Land Management, Agriculture, and Cooperatives led by Janardan Singh Chhetri; the Ministry of Finance led by Sunil Kumar Yadav; the Ministry of Energy, Irrigation, and Drinking Water led by Shesh Narayan Yadav; and the Ministry of Labor and Transport led by Kaushal Kishore Rai.
Previously, Chief Minister Singh faced difficulties in expanding the cabinet due to the Nepali Congress's demand to retain the Ministry of Finance.
