Kathmandu: The Janata Samajwadi Party (JSP) on Tuesday said that the party will not join the K P Sharma Oli-led government immediately.

In a statement, JSP Chairmen Mahanta Thakur and Upendra Yadav said that the party will, however, take initiation for forming a government only if a government is formed under its leadership or in the case of a government of national consensus.

“The policy and decision of the party to play its role in the opposition without participating in the government have remained unchanged. But we are ready to take the government formation process ahead if a government is formed under our leadership or in the case of a government of national consensus,” reads the statement.
