Speaker’s ruling to govt to address parliament on March 4

KATHMANDU, March 1: Speaker Devraj Ghimire made a ruling to the government urging it to address the issues raised by opposition parties by being present in parliament on March 4. 

The opposition parties have been demanding the government's response on issues such as the Balkumari incident, and loan-shark and cooperative victims' movement since February 8.

In the meeting on 26 February, the speaker ruled that the government should answer in the next meeting. However, Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal was absent in the next (Friday's) meeting.

At the beginning of today's parliament session, UML lawmaker Surya Thapa demanded that the Prime Minister be looked for, while RPP Chairman Rajendra Lingden also said that parliament cannot function any longer today.

After the parliamentarians of both parties rose from their seats, Speaker Ghimire ruled that the government attend the meeting on March 4 to answer these questions.
