There is one similarity between UML President KP Sharma Oli and Maoist President Pushpa Kamal Dahal, that is, they are liberal when they are in power and when they are in the opposition, they are liberal. Both the leaders are now being criticized due to their self-interested behavior.

Prime Minister and UML President Oli expelled former Vice President Bhim Rawal from the party and suspended Standing Committee member Binda Pandey and Central Member Ushakiran Timsena for 6 months from the secretariat meeting on December 10. Their 'mistake' was to make a public statement that the decision to build the party headquarters with the donation of businessman Meen Bahadur Gurung was wrong. In the central committee meeting held last week, Oli also warned that anyone who votes against the interests of the party and the leadership will be prosecuted. 

Before being elected UML president in June 2071, Oli's 'identity' was a different opinion. When Jhalnath Khanal and Madhav Kumar were in the Nepal Party leadership, Oli often had different opinions against the establishment. He was like a permanent opposition within the party. After reaching the leadership of the party, he is trying to prohibit different opinions. Some of the UML leaders say that he behaves unfairly towards leaders who have different views. "Even if there is a difference of opinion in the mind, there is no atmosphere to put it verbally or in writing in the meeting," said an official of UML, "No one is in favor of taking a risk by having a different opinion". No matter what proposal KPG brings, it will be easily passed.' He claims that the highest level of 'democracy' is being practiced in the Maoists. Tell . He also said that this is the first time in the history of UML that democracy is in such a crisis. "UML has reached this point because of the widespread practice of democracy after 2046. When Manmohan Adhikari, Madan Bhandari, Madhav Nepal and Jhalnath Khanal were leaders, there were more than a dozen written and verbal differences of opinion in one meeting," he said. ; Because it is a situation of speaking or burning.' He also commented that it is unfortunate to prohibit different opinions. 

In the past, before taking any serious decision, UML had an extensive discussion in the secretariat, standing committee . After brainstorming various opinions, it was a practice to decide by majority. "But recently, some serious decisions are not discussed in the secretariat, they are decided at once," said another official of UML, "The latest example of this is the decision to create a central office with the donation of businessman Gurung." He said that he is adopting. Rawal, the leader who has been prosecuted by UML, has been calling Oli's intransigent working style as autocracy. 

Maoist Chairman Dahal was accused of using his power to bribe his own party leader when he was the Prime Minister. Deputy General Secretary Janardan Sharma and former Speaker Onsari Gharti objected to the leadership's attempt to use state power to corrupt the government in the standing committee meeting last July. Sharma, in a written opinion, said that when she was the finance minister in 2078, she tried to get rid of 400 million rupees that came suspiciously from abroad and Gharti said that she tried to get rid of her family about gold smuggling orally. 

A difference of opinion takes a party in the right direction, so leftist parties have gone down the path of prohibiting differences of opinion as property .

- Krishna Pokharel, Professor

Deputy Secretary General Sharma put forward the demand for leadership transfer, party transformation and work style reform. In the political report submitted by Dahal in the Central Committee meeting after leaving power, Sharma's demand has been given priority. In the central committee meeting held last week, he also asked to hold a no-nonsense opinion. He also expressed his happiness saying that the highest practice of 'Janwad' (democracy) in the party.
Political science professor Krishna Pokharel said that the left-wing parties have recently gone on the path of prohibiting different votes as property. Mentioning that UML and Maoists have become stronger because of different views/opinions, he said that different opinions will take the party in the right direction. Earlier, if there was a difference of opinion in the Communist Party, it was considered as an alternative course of action. If the course of action passed by the majority was not successful, alternative course of action born from different ideas would be adopted," he said, "Communist principles have encouraged two lines of struggle within the party. But the main leadership in Nepal does not seem to like it.'

Pokharel said that it was strange for Oli, who established a different opinion in the UML, to adopt a liberal policy after he came to the leadership. He mentioned that Oli succeeded in coming to the leadership because of the highest practice of democracy in UML. Professor Pokharel's analysis is that due to the trend of making the original leadership as "great hero" in UML and Maoists recently, new ideas have not come to the party. If there is a crowd of those who praise the leadership, the creative power will be lost. The party will not be formed,' he added, 'new ideas will not be formed either. Pokharel's understanding is that staying liberal while in power and adopting a liberal style while in opposition is not a principle of Oli and Dahal, but a nature. 

Maoist secretary and analyst Ram Karki said that the core leadership of UML and Maoists (Oli and Dahal) have the ability to transform themselves according to the 'season'. They got together when NEP was made. Selfishness did not match, left. The last time they joined the government together again . Separated again,' he said, 'Both leaders are capable of using state power and party power.' "Power and party power should be used for the good of the country," he said, "but here, when in power, there is a style of being lenient, no matter how wrong it is.

UMA spokesperson Rajendra Gautam claimed that different opinions are not prohibited within the party." There has been an extensive debate on democracy in the Central Committee. Central members have suggested to maintain the effectiveness of the government, to maintain good governance, to work in a people-friendly manner, to work effectively," he said.

Oli-Dahal accusations-counter-arguments

In the UML central committee meeting, UML president KP Sharma Oli accused Maoist president Pushpa Kamal Dahal of being opportunistic and arrogant. In the central committee meeting of Maoists, Dahal also accused Oli of being a dictator. In the political report presented at the

meeting, Oli wrote, 'Due to Maoist President Prachanda's opportunism, unstable thinking, pomp and showmanship, our sincere efforts to instill hope and confidence in the people were not successful.' From the day after the event, Dahal started showing his old character and when it came to the presidential election, he was faced with Maoist manipulation, betrayal and pressure from power centers. It is also mentioned in the report that it has come down to the lowest point of surrender. 

Dahal said that he has a magic number in the parliament and Oli has also accused Daupech of using it to run the power for five years. "Sometimes being a small party is a matter of advantage, and the workers should not worry about the party being small, Dahal's comment was a mockery of parliamentary values, an ugly image of political opportunism and political opportunism," said Oli's report. Oli says that because of Dahal's expression and conduct, the backward forces have gathered the courage to openly act against the democratic republic.

Dahal also commented on the UML during the conclusion of the Maoist Central Committee meeting. Dahal called UML's action against Bhim Rawal, Binda Pandey and Ushakiran Timsena as dictatorial style .

'A businessman who has a case registered in the court, without deciding who owns the land, should not have taken donations without considering the prestige and dignity of the party, by using a disciplinary stick against two women leaders and expelling the leader who has contributed to the party for almost 45 years. They tried to maintain their dominance by adopting bureaucratic centralization and dictatorship," said Dahal. Efforts were made to lead to consultation, to create an open environment and to create consensus and understanding.
