The main opposition party, Maoist, has appeared to be flexible in its one-line demand that Home Minister Ramesh Lekhtar should resign over the visit visa case. However, due to the strict attitude of the RSVP, the parliament obstruction remains.
Parliament has been adjourned until Wednesday after the parties failed to reach an agreement on Monday. Prime Minister and UML President KP Sharma Oli's move to bring the opposition parties to their knees by putting Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba, the main partner party in power, has failed.
Just as the opposition parties have been blocking the House of Representatives since 13th of June by putting forward the resignation of Ramesh Akhtar as their one-line demand, in the same way the then main opposition party Congress also blocked the House of Representatives by demanding the resignation of the then Home Minister and chairman of the National Independent Party, Ravi Lamichhane, who was accused of embezzling the cooperative's funds by bringing them to the Gorkha media network. At that time, as the leader of the parliamentary party of the main partner in power, the current Prime Minister Oli was presenting various arguments that Ravi Lamichhane should not resign.
Oli has now used the same statement to defend the home minister writer. In the case of Lamichhane, the same writer, who has made a strong statement in
parliament as the chief whip of the main opposition party, has now insulted his own speech by believing that the Congress should resign after raising questions about Lamichhane.
On the surface, the main opposition party, Maoist, is said to have shown flexibility in the case they are raising, but after the murder of the Maoist vice-president and former Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota resurfaced, the public understood that Sapkota and the writer's case had been exchanged between the main opposition and power partner parties and they were looking for a common ground.
