Regmi further said some people were trying to cast aspersions on Minister Ale by bringing into public the informal and personal matters held when Ale was not holding a public post, so those involved in this activity must be brought to book.
A person named Jagat Oli originally from Achham district of Sudurpaschim Province and currently staying in Mumbai has been continuously pestering and blackmailing Minister Ale and making public the matter in social networking sites. Minister Ale's secretariat further claimed that some people who have been nervous over the good works done by the minister in recent times were inciting the mass against him, so everyone was urged not to be swayed by such an attempt.
Moreover, the secretariat expressed worry that after Ale was associated with the CPN (Unified Socialist), the cadres of the former party were repeatedly using invectives against Ale via social networking sites.
