Kathmandu: Chairperson of CPN (UML) KP Sharma Oli has said that the government should reduce the poverty line in the country to zero.
Addressing a gathering of Kathmandu district committee cadres of the party here today, he mentioned that the poverty line has now increased from 17 percent in the past to 20.26 percent, which has to be reduced to zero.
The former Prime Minister said that the UML is a party working with a determination to nation building. However, a defeat like the past elections in Kathmandu is unacceptable in the coming elections. The UML should get 90 percent votes in Kathmandu in the upcoming elections.
He also urged the party cadres to defend the party in the social media. “You have to speak for the party. The false allegations made by the opposition should be refuted”, he said.
