Prachanda claims UML Chair Oli still pursuing regressive agenda, path



KATHMANDU: CPN-Maoist Center Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ has accused CPN-UML Chairman KP Oli of still pursuing a regressive path and agenda.

Addressing a program held in Kathmandu Monday, the Maoist chair said, “The UML’s current moves of conveying the Nepali Congress (NC) that it would let the NC solely run the government and support the passage of Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) if the alliance is dismantled are efforts aimed at return to regressive agenda.”

He argued that Oli, in order to save himself and in self-defense, took counter-revolutionary step of dissolving the House of Representatives last year (December 20, 2020).

He recalled that after the dissolution of the parliament last year, the majority members of the then Nepal Communist Party (NCP) had took action against Oli. “If the Election Commission at the time had acted in accordance with the Constitution, laws and the precedents set in the past, Oli would have been without a party,” he said, adding, “Oli’s position in the party was fragile. He was saved through a grand conspiracy.”

He further said, “Oli had also accepted his defeat then and even registered a political party. But, people that were appointed to the Election Commission unconstitutionally had saved him.”
