Congress rival factions devise strategies to counter each other at central working committee meeting

Whether to suspend leaders implicated in corruption cases is likely to be a major bone of contention in the meeting.

On Tuesday, the Nepali Congress is holding its first Central Working Committee meeting after the general elections held in November 2022. According to leaders, the meeting will discuss policy conventions and assess the polls besides other contemporary political developments. The meeting will be crucial with party president Sher Bahadur Deuba expected to face many questions and a hail of criticism from the central working committee members, say party insiders.
