Bill related to Amend Some Nepal Act-2079 BS unanimously approved in HoR

The second meeting of House of Representatives (HoR) here Tuesday unanimously endorsed the ‘Bill designed to Amend Some Nepal Act-2079 BS’.

Minister for Law, Justice and Parliamentarian Affairs Govinda Prasad Sharma Koirala had presented the proposal seeking consideration on the Bill on last Sunday.

Parliamentarian Prem Suwal had objected the proposal, arguing that there was no quorum in the parliament to endorse the proposal seeking a decision on the Bill.

The meeting was postponed after Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota rang the bell for three minutes and asked to count the quorum which was not reached.

The government in the Bill had mentioned that the tenure of House of Representatives and Provincial Assembly will end from the day of the first meeting of the parliaments after the new election.

Both the ruling parties and opposition had presented the amendment proposal expressing qualm over the Bill.

The HoR is meeting at 1:00 pm tomorrow.
