KATHMANDU: Home Minister Ram Bahadur Thapa has claimed that the government dissolved the parliament to maintain stability in the country.
He said that after the government decided to dissolve the parliament and go for mid-term elections, there was a big debate on whether the move was constitutional or unconstitutional, but the government took a step forward.
“The government has taken a big step to go to the mid-term elections. There is a big debate whether dissolving the parliament is constitutional or unconstitutional, whether it is a regressive step or a progressive step. In our view, this is a step forward. This is a big political step. It was necessary to bring stability to the country again and to unite the communist movement again,” said Minister Thapa.
Minister Thapa, who represents PM KP Oli’s faction in the Nepal Communist Party (NCP), was addressing a cadres’ meet in Lalitpur on Friday.
He also said that as soon as the parliament was dissolved, a faction split from the party demanding the restoration of the parliament.
