House of Representatives to meet on Thursday

Kathmandu: The House of Representatives is scheduled to meet on coming Thursday.

The meeting of the lower house today was postponed by Speaker Devraj Ghimire to Thursday after the Rastriya Swatantra Party MPs continued to obstruct the House over the visit VISA scam.

The HoR was scheduled to meet at 1:00 pm today, but could not despite repeated changes in the time by the parliament secretariat. It may be noted that the ruling CPN (UML) and the main opposition, CPN (Maoist Centre), reached a two-point agreement on resuming the functioning of the House.

However, the RSP and the Rastriya Prajatantra Party continue obstructing the meeting, calling for an investigation committee and the resignation of the Home Minister, taking over the visitor VISA scam.
