WALING, Jan 25: Nepali Congress (NC) President Sher Bahadur Deuba has said that his party forged an alliance in forming the government as his party has not obtained a majority given the provisions of the constitution.
Addressing the first district conference of NC Syangja district committee on Tuesday in district headquarter Putalibazar, the former Prime Minister argued that forming the alliance was not a choice but an obligation.
"A single political party is not likely to get a majority also due to the proportional inclusive system stated in the constitution," Deuba added.

We have an obligation to forge alliance with one or the other political party to manage the majority, according to Deuba.
