Addressing a parliamentary party meeting of the \nruling Communist Party of Nepal, Oli said his government had succeeded \nin bringing \u201csecessionist\u201d groups to mainstream politics, and that he \nwould want to give the same opportunity to those practicing \u201cterrorism\u201d \nprovided they are willing to surrender arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oli also defended \nPresident Bidhya Bhandari\u2019s use of the phrase \u201cmy government\u201d 42 times \nwhen she unveiled the programmes and policies of the government during a\n joint sitting of parliament on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the media and the main\n opposition Nepali Congress saying that the President\u2019s speech smacked \nof what the monarchy did earlier, Oli said the language used was no \ndifferent from practices in democracies worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cA citizen can\n say my country, my nation, my national anthem and similarly the \nPresident who is the head of the state has every right to refer an \nelected government as her government,\u201d he said.\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
