Opposition parties urge government to call winter session of Parliament pronto

Opposition parties have urged the government to call the winter session of the Parliament.

During a press conference organized in the Capital on Friday, CPN (Maoist Center) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal warned that they would be compelled to start the process to call a special session if Parliament session is not convened immediately.

Objecting to the ordinances that recently got the presidential stamp of approval, the former Prime Minister said that they would come up with stern protests if such activities are not corrected.

“The majority should respect the minority in the parliamentary system. We are of the opinion that the trend of abusing the state agencies to fulfill their vested interests, tendency of avoiding the Parliament, making political decisions in a biased manner will put the democracy at stake,” leader Dahal said, adding, “That is why, we opposition parties, respecting the dignity of the Parliament, urged the government to call the winter session of the Parliament at the earliest.”
