Nepal's House witnesses ruckus over ordinance

Nepal's House witnesses ruckus over ordinance

Kathmandu, Mar 7 (UNI) Nepal's House of Representatives, met on Monday after it was reinstated by a Supreme Court order, saw unruly scenes with lawmakers from opposition parties raising slogans against the government from the well of the House and ruling party lawmakers close to Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Madhav Kumar Nepal walking out of the House over its agenda.
The Dahal-Nepal faction also demanded that Prime Minister Oli clarify which party's government he was leading after the Supreme Court nullified the unification between the CPN-UML and the CPN-MC, The Himalayan Times reported.
Opposition lawmakers from the Nepali Congress and Janata Samajbadi Party-Nepal swarmed the well of the House shouting slogans demanding that the government withdraw the Constitution Council Amendment Ordinance. Bhim Bahadur Rawal, of the Dahal-Nepal camp, demanded that only passing of condolence message be listed for today's business, but Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota told the House that the agenda of ordinances had already been listed.
