Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has reiterated that he dissolved the House of Representatives as he had no other choice as the prime minister with the support of 64 percent of the parliamentarians. He said that he had to go for a fresh mandate as he was trying to make the parliament useless by not allowing it to function.

Addressing a state-level public meeting organized by his group in Dhangadhi for the first time after the split of the CPN (Maoist) on Friday, Prime Minister Oli claimed that there were no possibility of re-establishing the House of Representatives as per the constitutional system, national and international practice and norms. “Now the parliament will come from the elections to be held in April,” he said, adding that the elections will be held on April 17 and 27 and the Election Commission is preparing for it. “It hurts to go to a bad element,” he said. “You don’t have to do anything else to address it in the village. Don’t vote for such an element.” Win and send the candidate I signed and sent, I will take charge of the development of the country. ‘

Prime Minister Oli also called on the people not to be influenced by those who have fled the party. He accused the leaders of another faction of the party of swearing at them without attending the Central Committee meeting and chanting obscene slogans. “I don’t have time to brush my teeth,” he said. In his address, Prime Minister Oli made harsh remarks against Bhim Rawal, the Far-Western state in-charge of the Dahal-Nepal group, without naming him. “Some people in the state are upset after the map of Lipulek-Limpiyadhura with encroached land was made public,” he said, referring to Rawal. Get the post right or wrong? He is saddened by the appointment of four ministers from the far west now because the Salghari forest clearing plan will not succeed.

Oli also accused Rawal of being an obstacle to state development. “The Achham boy picked up from the street is big now,” Oli said. “What did those who are bigger than children, bigger than people, do to solve the problems of this state?” He sneered at the Dahal-Nepal group, saying, “Squeezing a pillow doesn’t make you lose weight.”
