These four results are likely if NC and UML form coalition

KATHMANDU, Feb 25: Nepali political scenario is most likely to change as the members of the ruling alliance share different positions on Millennium Challenge Corporation(MCC)- Nepal compact. 

The CPN (Maoist Center) and the CPN (Unified Socialist) are opposing the MCC compact while the ruling Nepali Congress (NC) wants the MCC to be ratified at any cost.

As the Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba has failed to forge a consensus among the members of the ruling alliance, he has chosen to move the MCC forward with support of the main opposition party, CPN-UML.

PM and President of NC, Deuba has been holding meetings with Chairman of UML, KP Sharma Oli in this regard in the past few days.

Meanwhile, the two key partners of the Deuba-led government, CPN (MC) and CPN (US) are likely to withdraw their support to the government if MCC is put to vote in parliament.  

Even if the official decision regarding the coalition between NC and UML has not been made public yet, here are some possible results if it happens:

1) Split of the ruling alliance

2) Replacement of Speaker of the lower house

3) MCC compact ratification

4) Change in provincial government

Even if the NC and UML form a coalition to pass the MCC, the two parties are very much unlikely to continue the coalition during the local level polls as these two parties are the key rivals.
