House of Representatives meeting : Agenda for today’s meeting

Kathmandu: The second meeting of the House of Representatives under the winter session is being held today. The meeting will begin at 1 pm at the Federal Parliament Building in New Baneshwor.

The agenda for today’s meeting is to submit a proposal to pass the ordinance. Similarly, the agenda for today’s meeting of the House of Representatives includes submitting proposals to reject the ordinance.

Opposition party lawmakers have registered 50 proposals in the House of Representatives and 16 in the National Assembly to reject the ordinance.

Since the ruling party has a majority in the House of Representatives, it is seen that the ordinance will be easily passed there. However, since the ruling parties don’t have a majority in the National Assembly, Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba have sought the support of JASAPA Nepal. For that, top leaders of the ruling party are trying their best to bring Upendra Yadav in favor of the ordinance.

Ruling party Nepali Congress MPs oppose ordinance

Kathmandu – The winter session of Parliament has been scheduled for 1 pm today. While opposition parties are saying that they will protest in Parliament today regarding the bill and ordinance to be presented by the government in Parliament, MPs from the ruling party Nepali Congress are seen opposing the ordinance.

A meeting of the Nepali Congress parliamentary party is currently being held after their own MPs were seen opposing it. Congress leaders have said that the meeting may have been called to discuss the winter session starting today and to urge the MPs not to speak against the ordinance and to move forward with unity in Parliament. It is understood that apart three of the Congress MPs all are against the ordinance brought by the government.

In fact, Nepali Congress General Secretaries Gagan Thapa and Bishwaprakash Sharma have openly opposed the social media bill introduced by the government in the media and said that it should be corrected, while other lawmakers have also criticized the government’s move, saying that the government introduced the bill in a way that was favorable to them without discussing it in a parliamentary committee and that running the government through ordinances is a wrong practice in democracy.
