Day after joining hands, a meeting between Nepali Congress president Sher Bahadur Deuba and UCPN (Maoist) chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal ended inconclusively over the position on being the face against Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli.
Nepali Congress, the main opposition party, joined hands with the second-largest ruling coalition partner Unified CPN-Maoist and agitating Madhesi-based parties to topple Oli-led government.
The meeting, which took place at an undisclosed location, failed to yield results after Dahal disagreed on the Nepali Congress' proposal to bring down the current government and form a new government.
Nepali Congress leader Ramesh Lekhak, who was present during the meeting, informed that both leaders failed to reach to an agreement.
"He (Dahal) said with everything happening apace we haven't been able to convince all of our colleagues," the Kathmandu post quoted Lekhak as saying.
On Wednesday, a meeting of the UCPN (M) officials and standing committee decided to propose Dahal as the prime ministerial candidate.
