Nepal’s Ambassador to India recalled
He was appointed to the post in April last year from the Nepali Congress quota.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs recalled Upadhyay levelling three charges against him including his brazen involvement in toppling the current KP Oli led government," Kathmandu Post reported.
Top sources in the government told the Post that Cabinet has already decided to recall envoy Upadhyay after his short conversation with Prime Minister K P Oli on Friday morning.
The upcoming visit of Nepal President Bidhya Devi Bhandari to India has been cancelled, media reports said on Friday.
According to reports, she was scheduled to leave for India at the invitation of her Indian counterpart Pranab Mukherjee on May 9.
The President’s personal secretary Bhesh Raj Adhikari told The Himalayan Times Online that President Bhandari would not visit India on the scheduled date.
She was scheduled to meet Indian President and Prime Minister Narendra Modi during her visit to the neighbouring nation.
