NC AGAIN DISRUPTS HOUSE PROCEEDINGS
Kathmandu, 28 July::The main opposition party, Nepali Congress (NC), obstructed the proceedings of the Legislature-Parliament on Thursday also, calling for the implementation of the five-point agreement reached among the three main political parties on May 28 for extending the term of the Constituent Assembly, RSS reports.

The meeting of the Legislature-Parliament has remained obstructed since four days without taking up the agenda due to the obstruction by the NC.

The main opposition party has continued obstructing the House after the Central Working Committee of the party directed its parliamentary party to build up pressure for the implementation of the five-point agreement.

NC has been upping strong protests in the parliament, alleging that rather than to resign from his post for paving the way for the formation of a government of national consensus, Prime Minister Jhala Nath Khanal was preparing to reconstitute the Council of Ministers.

As soon as Speaker Subas Nembang announced that the meeting of the Parliament has begun, legislators from the NC protested by getting up from their respective seats.

Following this, NC leader and CA member Dr. Minendra Rijal accused the government and the UCPN-Maoist of coming forward with a policy of attrition rather than that of consensus. He said important topics like the peace and constitution have been neglected due to this attitude of the two major ruling parties.

He called on the government and the Maoist party to pave the way for peace and consensus and give up the culture of pushing the country towards a state of utter mismanagement.

Chief whip of the NC Parliamentary Party Laxman Prasad Ghimire said the Prime Minister has an important role in the implementation of the five-point agreement on which he himself has put down his signature.

After this, Speaker Nembang announced that the agenda scheduled for the meeting today have been removed as the situation was not conducive for continuing the meeting.
