INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
KATHMANDU: Following main opposition party Nepali Congress& obstruction of the Lower House of the Federal Parliament, Prime Minister KP
Sharma Oli today addressed a press conference in Singha Durbar to discuss withdrawal of Guthi Bill, among other issues.
PM Oli criticised
former Prime Minister and NC President Sher Bahadur Deuba for obstructing the parliament and termed this act undemocratic.
He further said
that undemocratic forces are hatching a conspiracy against the federal republic system
&We all have to remain alert while keeping an eye on such activities,& the PM said.
Regarding the Guthi Bill, which was earlier withdrawn
today, the Prime Minister stated that he had learnt of the withdrawal through social media.
On a different note, PM Oli said our new
generation hardly show any respect for the older generation
He went on to express his displeasure over the media for what according to him is their failure in exhibiting minimum respect towards the
honourable post-holders of the county
&Mediapersons are too direct and disrespectful in their approach
What is the media teaching our younger generation
Social Media is so ruthless, where is the society headed to with such degradation of culture& Oli questioned.
The Prime Minister was clearly
irked by the ‘intellectual community&, again, for he used this opportunity to raise questions on the modus operandi of a section of Nepali
intelligensia.
&I feel embarrassed listening to the things said by so-called intellectuals
Their uncivil, ill-disciplined approach towards issues clearly shows they lack cultural and moral values.&
Oli was supposed to apprise the
house on Guthi-Bill, achievements of his recently concluded Europe-visit, among other issues.
