KATHMANDU, April 2: Nepali Congress Spokesperson Dr. Prakash Sharan Mahat has said that the allegation made by CPN-UML Chairman KP Oli that Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba ignored him before his visit was false. Spokesperson Mahat made the remarks during a program organized in Kathmandu on Saturday.
“People close to Chairman Oli have been spreading misinformation that the PM did not meet or hold any talks with him. This is not true,” Mahat said. “PM Deuba informed Oli was unable to meet him so he decided to call him to come meet him instead, which he did not,” he added.
