In yesterday's House of Representatives meeting, Oli defended his house dissolution move. In today's meeting, Deuba said that his attention had been drawn by Oli's statement that the HoR may be dissolved again. He said that now the challenge is to protect the constitution.
However, speaking in parliament on Tuesday Oli said, “I want to ask my friend, did you not dissolve parliament? I want to ask a question. Interpretation according to chance should not be done in politics”
He added, “I have seen what Sher Bahadurji has done in the past. Why should I be attacked for taking inspiration from you?"
Deuba dissolved parliament in 2002.
