BIRATNAGAR, Feb 27: CPN-UML leader KP Sharma Oli has accused UCPN (Maoist) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal of trying to embezzle funds in the name of vacating the cantonments in three weeks.



Talking to reporters at Biratnagar airport on his way to Hile of Dhankuta, where he is scheduled to address a mass meeting, the UML leader said Maoist leadership is one again creating a chance to make money in the name of the combatants.



Though Dahal´s proposal to vacate the cantonments is a positive move, Oli said, there is not much to expect from it as ´nothing of his assurances in the past has ever been fulfilled´.



Maoists neither want to join a government under any other parties nor want to involve other parties in the government led by them, he said and blamed them for toppling the previous governments led by UML´s Madhav Kumar Nepal and Jhalanath Khanal.



In the context of the Dang incident in which traffic policemen had resigned en masse over a dispute involving a YAN man, Oli said, "It is wrong on the part of the traffic policemen to resign. It is ridiculous that people can´t ride (motorbike) without helmet".



He also alleged the traffic police of, at times, keeping nexus with criminals and said the incident only had a motive to defame YAN, the youth wing of his party.
