Internal strife and china’s pressure won’t allow the new prime minister to take a soft stand towards his country’s centuries old ally.
The instability in Nepal has exposed its deliberate attempt of blaming India for all its ills. Delivering a protracted speech, Khadga Prasad Sharma ‘Oli’ informed the Nepalese Parliament that he had done his best in the short stint of nine months. The high drama started by CPN (Maoist-Centre) leader, Pushpa Kamal Dahal. He was eyeing for the Prime Minister Chair.
Parchand schemed to remove Oli in May, 2016 but his plan was thwarted due to the interference of China. In between, Parchand established political chord with Nepali Congress and Madhesi rainbow parties. The legitimate blame he slapped against Oli was failure of Federal system in the last nine months.
His regime sliced Nepal into different sections of ethnic barricades. That is why Prachand had moved a no-confidence motion against the Oli Government, accusing him of being ‘anti-federalist’ and ‘being close to those political forces that want to revive the monarchy’.
But the real reason for the CPN (Maoist-Centre)’s withdrawal of its support to the UML government was Oli’s refusal to implement a power sharing deal with Dahal. In May, Oli had saved his government by promising to hand over power to Dahal after the budget was announced.
But, later, Oli denied having made any such agreement with Dahal. His making a U-turn resulted in the CPN (Maoist-Centre)’s decision to pull out of the government by signing another power-sharing deal, this time with the NC.
Oli, during his prolong speech in Parliament, tried to showcase himself as a leader who pioneered a new route of foreign policy of equidistance. He tried to vouch for NepalChina relations, which started with a promising note. It has space and scope to challenge the India-centric foreign policy of China.
