UML General Secretary Shankar Pokharel has claimed that the party is being attacked because it opposed the Indian blockade in 2072. Mentioning that it was announced that the constitution would not be issued at that time, UML President KP Sharma Oli asked the then Foreign Secretary of India Jai ​​Shankar not to worry about the constitution of Nepal.

General Secretary Pokharel asked the youth leaders to understand that the UML opposed India's blockade after the constitution was promulgated in an event organized by Yuva Sangh Nepal on Saturday. Earlier, the UML Central Committee meeting also concluded that the UML and its leadership were under siege.

'It was attempted to make the Second Constituent Assembly a failure. When the political parties of Nepal resolved to make a constitution, it was announced that the constitution should not be issued. No one dared. KP Oli said, the work of the Constituent Assembly is to make the constitution. "If we don't make a constitution, nothing else will work," he said. It should be understood in connection with today's attack that the leader of the constitution making is our party president KP Sharma Oli.'

UML President Oli is also saying that the government is under siege, while General Secretary Pokharel has accused India of attacking it symbolically.

'After we promulgated the constitution, a blockade was imposed on this country. The parties in the government at that time could not call the blockade a blockade. They started to say border barriers. But when KP Oli became the Prime Minister, he said that it was a blockade, he said, "He took a firm stand that a blockade on neighbors cannot be accepted in vain." For the first time, we took the Indian blockade to the people and made it fail. It should be understood that the attack on us today is also due to the failure of the blockade.'
