Cadres of the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) have mistreated their own leader during a function organized here on Saturday.
Cadres close to Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli mistreated Standing Committee member Surendra Pandey at the ‘Meeting and Training’ program of the NCP Chitwan Rapti Municipal Committee on Saturday morning.
While Pandey was speaking at the program, a group of 15/20 people from outside the committee entered the meeting hall and stopped Pandey from speaking by sloganeering.
They accused leader Pandey of making a wrong statement against Prime Minister Oli and supporting a faction.
Pandey is considered close to NCP Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal alias Prachanda and senior leader Madhav Kumar Nepal.
They disrupted the meeting and training program by chanting slogans such as ‘gathering of faction can’t be held, ‘long live party unity’ and ‘long live politician KP Oli’.
