KATHMANDU: CPN-UML has stepped up its action against the party’s Standing Committee (SC) member Ghanshyam Bhusal.
The party’s central committee has approved the recommendation made by the Secretariat of the Disciplinary Commission to take action against leader Bhusal.
Bhusal, in a television interview immediately after the local-level election, had alleged party Chairman KP Oli for what he said “poor results” in the elections held on May 13.
He had even said he would rather resign from the post as the party could not bring expected results in the election.
A meeting of the Secretariat on June 1 had recommended the party Standing Committee ask Bhusal for clarification on the issue.
After the party’s defeat in the local elections, the UML formally concluded that the result was due to intra-party collusion.
UML, which is said to be taking action against those involved in the “sabotage”, is likely to take the first action against Oli’s critic Bhusal.
Bhusal has been saying that he was ready to respond to the party’s clarification.
