TAPLEJUNG, Nov 23: Stating that his resignation was sought as “some people were scared by the popularity of the current government”, Prime Minister K P Oli has said that the current government will not change in any circumstances. Prime Minister Oli also termed those making allegations that his government did nothing as “a bunch of jobless people seeking to bring instability in the country.”


Addressing a function organized in remote Ghunsa village in Taplejung district on Monday to inaugurate a newly-established health post, Prime Minister Oli argued that those who are scared of the efforts made by the current government to bring prosperity in the country had sought his resignation. He termed the government’s move to introduce a new political map to reclaim Nepali territory currently held by India as one of the popular works of his government.


Prime Minister Oli claimed that a section of leaders had demanded his resignation from both the posts of prime minister and party chairman out of fear that their existence would fall in jeopardy. “Some of you here are politicians as well. If allegations such as the government failed to do anything are made against the government led by your own party and questions – both verbal and written — are raised time and again to give the impression that the government will collapse at any time, these acts are done by those who are scared of the progress made by the government and those who have nothing else to do,” said the prime minister, while addressing the gathering of the local people.
