Communications and Information Technology Minister Prithvisubba Gurung has said that the parliamentarian who accused Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli of leaving behind people on visit visas during his visit to Spain has already criticized himself.

Speaking during a press conference at Singh Darbar, he said that the allegation that some people who went on a tour to Spain with Prime Minister Oli did not return is baseless. National Independent Party MP Sovita Gautam alleged that some people who accompanied the Prime Minister to the Parliament had been left behind by the Prime Minister in Spain. The day after the accusation was made, she said in the assembly meeting that she did not say that the people who went with the prime minister did not return. Since then, questions about this have been continuously raised.

However, the government has already started an investigation saying that there may be people who did not return through visit visas for the program in which the Prime Minister will participate. The government also claims that all those who went under the leadership of the prime minister have returned. In response to the question raised by the media, Minister of Communications Gurung said that there is a code of conduct regarding how many people will go with the Prime Minister and the MP himself has already criticized himself for spreading confusion.

He said, 'The gentleman who asked the question in the parliament has made a kind of self-criticism. I didn't say that, you said no. The question was whether the Prime Minister took it and left it. Honorable Prime Minister has a code of conduct - how many people to take, what to take. When the President, Vice President and Prime Minister go out, they are told not to take more than 21 people.'
