KATHMANDU

Vice President Parmananda Jha said that the political parties should provide some way out to the present political deadlock by the sixth prime ministerial election on September 5. The VP said so while at the pokhara airport for attending a religious function at the Bindyabasini temple.

The Vice President stated that the political parties should present an explanation to the citizens if they fail to form a government in the sixth round. While saying that the political parties should be moving ahead with consensus and understanding , he ruled out the possibility of Presidential rule on being asked about that possibility. Terming both Presidential and Monarchial rule as equivalent, Jha clarified that it "is unthinkable".
