KATHMANDU: Nepal Workers and Peasants Party Chairman Narayan Man Bijukchhe said Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal was developing himself a traitor gradually.

Speaking with journalists in Bhaktapur today, the veteran Communist leader said Dahal among other leaders of the CPN Maoist Centre was working as a puppet of India.

But, India would throw them away once it met its interests from them, he said.

Meanwhile, Bijukchhe predicted that the incumbent ruling coalition would fall very soon as the Nepali Congress would not continue the partnership.

He accused the government of not making serious preparations towards holding local elections on time.

Speaking in a different context, Bijukchhe said the government was proved very weak in the diplomatic front.
