KATHMANDU, Feb 22: General Secretary of the Nepali Congress, Gagan Kumar Thapa, has said that the ruling partners are not expected to vote against a proposal brought by the government.  


Talking to media persons here today, leader Thapa shared that being a part of the government, voting against the government's proposal would be unethical and impractical.  


He added, "It will be unethical and non-political to say we are the ruling coalition parties after casting vote against the government's proposal. It is not possible to be in the ruling alliance if the ruling partners cast their vote against the government's proposal."

Leader Thapa mentioned, "We want to make it clear before the people why the NC is in favor of the MCC Compact. The party's rank and file are in its favor."
