Inaugurating a film production based on a true story of an acid-survivor teenage girl here Sunday, Oli, also the former Prime Minister, called for building a nation free of acid attacks.
Pressing for stringent punishment for the acid-attackers, he called for systematic and strict sales of such harmful substances. He vowed to discuss the issues relating to acid attack-survivors with Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda'.
