We have no faith in PM Dahal: Oli

KATHMANDU, March 20: CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli has accused Prime Minister and CPN (Maoist Center) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal of weakening national interest.

He made this allegation while addressing a meeting of the party's parliamentary party held at Lhotse Hall in the Parliament Building on Monday.

He accused Prime Minister Dahal of practicing dishonesty from the very second day of becoming the Prime Minister, and moving toward instability. Chairman Oli said that Dahal is like Jung Bahadur in the party.

He also accused Dahal of planning to weaken the national forces. He said that Dahal has made foreign relations unreliable. Oli clarified that the Prime Minister cannot be trusted in parliament because of the deterioration of Nepal's relations with friendly countries. He said that even though the selfish people of the alliance gave a vote of confidence to the Prime Minister, his party would not give him a vote of confidence.

Chairman Oli said, "The prime minister is the chairman of the party, except for him, everyone else in that party has nothing to blame. He is under pressure because of the confusion. The Prime Minister is like Jung Bahadur. What he says will happen. If you speak against him, it will be revealed. Allegations are made that he is in collusion with others. He does not allow unity, and if unity is forged, he is engaged in the business of breaking it. Break and leave. It was seen in the past. He went and joined the right wing saying that there was a regression after overthrowing the leftist government. This time again a left wing government was formed but he could not tolerate it. From the day he became the prime minister, he could not maintain his faith. He formed a right-wing government. Foreign relations have become fragile. Corruption is now increasing, not stopping. Development has stopped. He must be of the opinion that UML should be opposed. He is to be blamed for all this. Therefore, it cannot be said that there is trust in the Prime Minister. The selfish people of the alliance voted but we have no interest, so it cannot be said that the Prime Minister has the confidence of parliament, winning and losing is a game of selfishness, we should not be involved in this, we do not have faith in him, recent activities confirm that, we will not vote for him.”
