Leader Koirala argued that there was no point in protesting against the decision of the Prime Minister to keep the National Investigation Department and the Department of Money Laundering Investigation under his control. “Did the NC protest against the then Prime Minister KP Oli when he had brought both the bodies under his control? Since that right belongs to the Prime Minister, there is no need to continue protesting against it,” he said.
