Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda has appointed three new ministers in his council of ministers on the sixth day of his election as the head of government. The new ministers are Deepak Bohara and Bikram Pandey of Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) and Jaydev Joshi of CPN (Samyukta). “They have not been assigned any portfolio and they will work as ministers without portfolio for now,” prime minister's personal secretary Ramesh Malla told Republica. The new ministers were sworn in on Monday. Earlier, Dahal had appointed two deputy prime ministers and three other ministers from his own party and other major ruling partner Nepali Congress. With the RPP's decision to join the government, the plan to unify the RPP and RPP-Nepal has been cancelled.
