A senior minister has said the government is ready to foil the Maoist attempt for declaring autonomous federal states and blockade of the Kathmandu valley as part of their second phase protests.

Speaking to media persons in the capital on Monday, Information and Communication Minister Shankar Pokhrel said such initiatives taken by the opposition party are against the peace agreement and interim constitution.

He said there won't be any agreement for change in government leadership and parliamentary debate on president's move but government is open to talk on all other issues.

Pokharel accused the Maoists of working for partisan interest, not for nation's interest. He warned that if the Maoists declared alternative government, the 22-party government would take all necessary legal action against the party.

He said the government might use alternatives to parliament for passing the budget if the opposition party does not support to resume parliament session.

Saying that street protests are not proper means to topple the government, Pokharel urged the Maoists to prove their majority in the parliament to lead new government. nepalnews.com

Haha... "street protests are not the way to topple govt" re. How do you
think you toppled the king's govt and became Minister yourself, you idiot?! When
you were out of power it was ok to join hands with armed forces in foreign lands
to topple the govt through street protest in kathmandu. Now that you are
minister it is not ok?

This is what's meant by "people in gl houses should
not throw stones..."

Pokharel ji tapaiko nani bhanda patuki lamo bhashan garnu bho ni? Maoists has
every rights to protest this loser government. But, they shouldn't not block the
parliament, which is very undemocratic, and this could show example for other
parties when they are in opposittion they could do the same. So, I suggest
Maoists show an example by not obstructing parliamentary proceedings. Parliament
is all in all in our system of rule. If a largest party blocks in such a manner,
this becomes a precedent and all others can do. This will be a violation of
rights. However, there is no reason why government sholdn't discuss the
President's move. In a democratic country, discussing anything is possible in
parliament. So, in a sense, maoists can not be blamed if they obstruct the
house, at a time when the government is not discussing issues raised by a
largest party. How can you say this will be a democratic system?

I think the President's move is illegal and government should be given right to
discuss about it. Otherwise, we can't stay still on every illegal move of
president.
