Referring to the ongoing political developments in Nepal, the Indian Ministry of External Affairs&nbsp;on Wednesday called it&nbsp;an internal matter, adding that it&nbsp;should be dealt by Nepal under its own domestic framework and democratic processes.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The political crisis has deepened in Nepal amid the COVID-19 pandemic after President Bidya Devi Bhandari dissolved parliament following unsuccessful attempts to obtain a majority to form a new government by Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and opposition leader Sher Bahadur Deuba.

The statement issued by the official spokesperson of the Indian External Affairs Ministry, Arindam Bagchi, said, “We have taken note of the recent political developments in Nepal. We view these as internal matters of Nepal to be dealt by them under their own domestic framework and democratic processes.”

The president has also announced fresh general elections in November.&nbsp;“As a neighbour and friend, India remains unwavering in its support for Nepal and its people on their journey toward progress, peace, stability and development,” Bagchi added in the statement.

A coalition of five Nepalese opposition political parties on Saturday decided to legally challenge President Bidya Devi Bhandari’s move to dissolve the Parliament on&nbsp;the recommendation of Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli.&nbsp;

In a joint statement issued at the end of a meeting called to discuss the developments, the opposition leaders expressed their commitment to “defend the constitutional rights of Nepali citizens achieved at the end of years of political struggle.”

However, all ministers belonging to the CPN (MC) including Home Minister Thapa and Energy Minister Rayamajhi seem non-committal to the party's decision as of now, the paper said. 
 
As the ministers belonging to the party are seen reluctant to tender their resignations, the party will now write to them in person to do so, said Ganesh Shah, a central committee member of the CPN (MC). 
 
Sunday's meeting also discussed taking action against its cabinet ministers in the government, according to party leaders. 
 
Industry Minister Lekhraj Bhatta, Urban Development Minister Prabhu Sah and Labor Minister Gaurishankar Chaudhari are parliamentarians belonging to the CPN (MC), while Water Supply Minister Mani Thapa and Youth Minister Dawa Lama are central leaders of the party. 
 
As per the legal provision, lawmakers will lose their seats in the upper house and the lower house of Parliament if they choose to leave the party or their party decides to expel them from the party. 
 
On Friday, the Central Committee meeting of the CPN (UML) led by Prime Minister Oli had nominated 23 leaders of Maoist Centre, including the ministers to the party's central committee which the faction opposing him has said is against the norms of the party. 
 
Nepal's Election Commission on Tuesday asked the CPN (UML) led by Oli and the CPN (Maoist Center) led by Prachanda to come up with a new name and election symbol of the party if they decide to merge their parties again after the Supreme Court quashed the 2018 unification of the two parties.
