Constitution is a shared principle of political parties-Lawmaker Dhakal

Kathmandu, April 5: Federal parliamentarian Eknath Dhakal said lack of majority of a single political party in the federal and provincial parliament has imparted a message that the political parties should move ahead together.

Talking to RSS, he said the key political parties should forge consensus on the issues of nation, nationality and public welfare.”Nepal’s parliamentary exercise is not very long. Yet, the parliament has performed well in several critical situations in the short span amidst available limited resource, means and facilities”, Dhakal claimed.

Law-making did not gain momentum in the past when the government was unable to create business for the parliament, he said, adding the parliament formed after the last general elections got entangled on many issues.

The election of the Prime Minister, formation of the government and parliamentary committees, delay in addressing the questions raised in the parliament by the government and House disruption had created bottlenecks in the law-making process, he mentioned.

“But now several bills have been registered in the House. Some are in the pipeline for moving forward while some are under discussion. Some bills have also been enacted”, lawmaker Dhakal said, stressing the need to impart a positive message that political parties in Nepal can work together during the national crisis.

He floated an idea to govern the country on the basis of consensus and collaboration among the key political parties considering Constitution as a shared principle.Dhakal, also the founder of Nepal Pariwar Dal, was elected the House of Representatives member under the Proportional Representation system on behalf of the CPN (UML)
