A glued graph at $K_2$-clone ($K_3$-clone) results from combining two vertex-disjoint graphs by identifying an edge (a triangle) of each original graph. The clique covering numbers of these desired glued graphs have been investigated recently. Analogously, we obtain bounds of the clique partition numbers of glued graphs at $K_2$-clones and $K_3$-clones in terms of the clique partition numbers of their original graphs. Moreover, we characterize glued graphs satisfying such bounds
