The then Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli is a famous Minister in the Council of Ministers - Prem Bahadur Ale.
Ale, who was elected from Doti-1 in the 2074 general election, was made the Minister of Forests and Environment last December after Oli dissolved the House of Representatives for the first time.
Ale did not do any significant work when he was the Forest Minister, but he became very popular due to his contradictory speeches. Her meme and video went viral on social media.
Last time, he had pasted a poster with his picture on some oxygen cylinders and distributed it in Doti and Dhangadhi hospitals.
These prominent ministers were removed by Oli after dissolving the House of Representatives for the second time.
Ale, who became his charioteer after Oli dissolved the House of Representatives unconstitutionally, was not with Oli on Sunday. In the reconstituted House of Representatives on Sunday, Nepali Congress President and Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba were scheduled to take a vote of confidence. Before the House of Representatives meeting, the UML Standing Committee meeting (Madhav Nepal's side was absent) had decided to vote against Prime Minister Deuba. Talking to reporters after the meeting chaired by Oli, UML spokesperson Pradip Gyawali said that those who voted for Deuba would not stay in UML.
Ale violated the decision of the meeting. In a vote on Sunday night, he crossed the floor with senior leader Madhav Kumar Nepal and other lawmakers and cast a vote of confidence in Deuba's favor. Along with him, eight other Oli MPs also gave a vote of confidence to Deuba.
On Monday morning, Sethopati asked MP Ale why he had left with Oli.
In response, Ale said he would not comment at this time.
'I won't talk about it now. I will tell you in a few days, 'he said.
Although Ale did not open his mouth, he was dissatisfied after Oli removed him from the ministry.
According to those close to him, Ale is dissatisfied that Oli removed him from the ministry in an insulting manner within five months. That is why he was close to senior leader Nepal recently.
According to sources, Ale had reached Budhanilkantha to meet Deuba after Deuba became the Prime Minister with the support of UML MPs including Nepal. However, he has not admitted this.
Another reason he left with Oli is UML vice-president Bhim Rawal. Ale and Rawal are from neighboring Achham and Doti districts in the far west. But their relationship is not good. After Rawal refused to give him a ticket in the 2074 election, Ale went to Oli's residence in Balkot to secure a ticket.
Recently, after the Deuba government and the UML failed to reach a consensus with senior leader Nepal on unity, Ale came closer to Nepal.
'Last time he went to Koteshwar many times. His friendship with Nepal had increased a lot. It was easier for him as he stayed away from Nepal, 'said an MP.
Like Ale, another MP who came to the fore during the Oli government is Kisan Shrestha.
In the last election, he defeated senior Nepali Congress leader Ram Chandra Poudel in Tanahu-1. Her farmer hardware is popular in Damauli. He also has investments in the gas industry and the hotel sector.
MP Shrestha had gone to Janakpur in April 2077 BS. His team, including another UML MP Mahesh Basnet and former IGP of Nepal Police Sarvendra Khanal, had abducted the then Samajwadi Party MP Surendra Yadav from Janakpur to Kathmandu.
In the midst of a lockdown to stop the first wave of coronavirus, the then Prime Minister Oli reached Janakpur and brought another party's MP to Kathmandu.
Even after that, Shrestha continued to support Oli. He was also with Oli when he dissolved the House of Representatives in an unconstitutional manner in December and May.
While giving a vote of confidence to Prime Minister Deuba on Sunday, he went to the polls with leader Madhav Kumar Nepal. Contrary to the decision of the party's standing committee, Deuba was given a vote of confidence.
We also asked MP Shrestha on Monday morning, 'Why did you leave Oli? We asked.
He said he had given a vote of confidence to protect parliament.
'The Supreme Court is the ultimate interpreter of the constitution. The parliament should have been protected to respect the decision of the Supreme Court, 'Shrestha said. Permanent MPs and permanent government. I could not devalue the people's vote. I did not vote for Congress, I voted to save the parliament. '
