HoR to meet on Thursday

Kathmandu: Today’s meeting of the House of Representatives (HoR), the lower house of the Federal Parliament, has been postponed.

The meeting was postponed for half an hour after it was obstructed by the opposition parties at the outset.

Speaker Devraj Ghimire informed that the meeting would be held on Thursday after the opposition lawmakers disrupted the meeting for the second time as well.

Earlier, the Speaker had repeatedly issued rulings with requests to the lawmakers of the opposition parties to create an environment for conducting the house proceedings.

At the outset of today’s meeting, opposition lawmakers disrupted the meeting, protesting the government’s decision to dismiss Kulman Ghising as Executive Director of Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA).

They had disrupted the HoR meeting demanding that Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli should answer in the House on the issue. The House of Representatives will next meet at 11:00 am on Thursday.
