Nepal’s Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli previously obtained the consent of the country’s president, Bidya Devi Bhandari, to dissolve parliament and hold re-elections in two stages on April 30 and May 10 next year. This surprise operation not only shocked the opposition forces within the Communist Party of Nepal to which it belongs, but also attracted the Chinese army that has been behind the political situation in Nepal.
The conflict between the Prime Minister of Nepal Oli and the former Prime Minister of the Communist Party of Nepal (Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda) has recently escalated. The Prachada faction tried to force Ollie to relinquish power to his party. Ollie would rather prepare to establish a new party than suspend Prachada’s session. Hou Yanqi, China’s ambassador to Nepal, actively intervened, and the Nepalese Foreign Ministry protested in July this year, violating diplomatic rules.
The Hindustan Times reported that Oli’s decision to dissolve parliament caused panic in the party’s opposition. People familiar with the matter pointed out that Prime Minister Oli’s decision will free him to lead the government and divide the Maoists led by the Communist Party of Nepal and Prachada.
Hou Yanqi, China’s ambassador to Nepal, feared that the division of the Communist Party of Nepal would cause unfavorable factors for China. In late April and early May this year, he met intensively with the Nepalese communist leaders in the hope that they would stick together.
Nepalese observers said China initially supported Ollie, but changed its strategy earlier this year, with the intention of euthanizing Ollie.
The report noted that Prime Minister Ollie told Hou Yanqi that he did not need foreign intervention and that he could resolve disputes within the party. However, Hou Yanqi continued to quietly intervene in the internal affairs of Nepal.
A person tracking political developments in Nepal noted that Hou Yanqi not only secretly helped former Prime Minister Prachada weaken Oli, but also participated in a plot to overthrow Oli and allow Deputy Prime Minister Bamdev Gautam to replace him.
The report noted that the dissolution of the National Assembly by President Ollie will delay China’s calculations.
Ollie’s assistant, Oli’s assistant Rajan Bhattarai, pointed out that the prime minister’s decision was due to strong opposition resistance within the party and that he had to resign from the party leadership. So he decided to confront and appeal to the most current public opinion.
