Madhav Kumar, the opponent of Nepal's President VD Bhandari and Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, was in a discussion about the meeting of Chinese Ambassador Howe Yankee from Nepal, according to the news agency ANI, Chinese Ambassador on Tuesday morning met another former Prime Minister of the country Jhala Nath Khanal Met
While these activities of the Chinese ambassador are seen as 'interference in the internal affairs of Nepal' in the capital Kathmandu, amid the 'power-struggle' in Nepal's ruling party 'Communist Party of Nepal', Oli and India's uneasy India has also stood up for the relationship, the Indo-Nepal border dispute and China's open interference in Nepal till recently.
According to a source present in Kathmandu, Chinese Ambassador Howy Yanqi has met five top leaders of Nepal since last Friday. However, except for the meeting with Madhav Nepal, no statement has been issued from the Chinese Embassy nor the leaders of Nepal.
Even after meeting Madhav Nepal and How Yankee, Deputy Chief of CPN-UML Foreign Department Bishnu Rizal told the BBC Nepalese service that the two have met 'but I do not know what happened'.
During these meetings and discussions, an important meeting of the ruling Communist Party on Monday was canceled in which it was said that the demand for Oli's resignation might have reached its conclusion. Apart from leadership, the possibility of a break in the party was also being expressed in many places.
This is not the first time of such meetings with the leaders of CPN of Rajudut Yankee. In May too, a lot of people had their eyes on similar steps against the growing opposition against Prime Minister Oli.
KC Khadga, head of international affairs at Tribhuvan University, says that "the meeting between the Ambassador and CPN leaders amidst political tussle has given rise to a lot of speculation but I think there should be no interference in our internal affairs".
China's growing influence
Some sections of the Nepali Communist Party, which came to power in 2006 with India's 'cooperation', now have more influence over China, according to Yubraj Ghimire, a senior journalist who knows India closely, as a result of the revenge vote on the Nepalese people. Can also be seen on
After the dispute with India over Lipulekh, Kalapani and Lipiadhura, Prime Minister Oli had even alleged in Parliament that some people are trying to topple his government with the help of India. At that time many leaders of his party had demanded that either the Prime Minister should give any evidence about the attempts to topple the government or leave his post.
Meanwhile, there are reports of raids in the search of Indian spies in three hotels in the capital Kathmandu.
Writer and well-known political analyst Kanak Mani Dixit has said in one of his tweets, "What is the situation: If CPN breaks down, India will be held accountable." If the party gathers, then China will get the credit for this.
Party spokesperson Qazi Shrestha, however, denied that Nepal's internal politics was going on at the behest of external forces and added that "Nepal as a sovereign country is capable of taking its own decisions." We oppose any kind of interference in our affairs and we dislike it.
However, when he was asked to explain this statement, he said that his tweet is not about any particular person.
He said, 'The Prime Minister made a statement that India is plotting to oust him from power. Now people are saying that the Chinese Ambassador is trying to resolve the differences between the anti-CPN camps. My view is that we are free and can resolve our differences by sitting together.
But journalist Yubraj Ghimire believes that China's increased influence in Nepal cannot be completely ruled out and should be seen as a reaction to India's "very aggressive policy in Nepal" in this century.
'The government of a country which itself considers Maoists to be the biggest threat to internal security, decides to participate in the power of the same Maoists in the neighboring country and then makes other powers to participate in it, surrounded by a four-pronged country. If it gets a blockade, it all affects the public's mind, and how can the politician stay away from it?
They say that incidents like the border dispute give more air to the anti-India atmosphere.
In the last few years, China has been trying to strengthen its strategic ties with investment, due to the changed mood in Nepal for India and spreading its foot in Asia.
Ghimire says that what China is doing today in Nepal has also been done by India, although the Nepalese want their relations to be as far away from both.
