Addressing his party cadres in Bhairahawa, Deuba urged them to concentrate on strengthening party organisation and involve in election campaigns. Deuba said that Prime Minister and president of NC Girija Prasad Koirala was stalling the unity between the two parties. "I told him numerous times that I do not need any position for myself, just ensure respectful unity among leaders and cadres up to district level. He has just been procrastinating," he said, adding, "Now I do not see any prospect for unity. There is no alternative to announcing that there will not be any unity." Speaking at the same programme, NC-D leader Pradeep Giri has accused that nepotism among Koirala clan has obstructed the unification.
