“Biplav [Chand] group is acting like a gang of bandits. They are resorting to criminal activities to collect funds,” said Oli during a function in Biratnagar, urging the business community not to pay any donations to the outfit. Oli said that the government would seize the arms from the outfit if it did not surrender them within the 35-day deadline issued by the government. Amid suggestions from various quarters that the government hold talks with the outfit, Oli said the government would not sit for dialogue until the outfit gives up violence.
