There is talk that Gupta became a minister from Genji's quota. Minister Gupta was called by a group of non-resident Nepali association NRNA. 

It was criticized that the group was not official and that he got the visit approved by the Council of Ministers by showing a fake invitation. Two groups of NRNA America also issued separate statements regarding Minister Gupta's visit. One group said that they were invited, while the other group claimed that they did not invite Gupta.
