Kathmandu, June 26
The main opposition party, Nepali Congress, has accused Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli of trying to be a ‘new king’.
The party’s lawmaker Minendra Rijal claimed that the Prime Minister was trying to exercise authoritarian rule as he tried to bring various government agencies under the Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers.
He was taking part in the discussion held on budget allocation proposed for the OPMCM, in the House of Representatives meeting today and said the budget allocated was more than necessary.
Rijal further suggested that the Prime Minister control his activities at the earliest as they were against the laws.
Home Minister Ram Bahadur Thapa; Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation Rabindra Adhikari; and Minister for Law Sher Bahadur Tamang were also acting against the laws as they petrified employees and common people, he said, adding, such behaviours must be controlled.
