PM Dahal urged to inform House about his upcoming India visit

KATHMANDU : Parliamentarians have drawn the attention of the government to the current issues including the upcoming visit of Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal to India in today’s meeting of the House of Representatives (HoR).

Speaking during the special hour of the HoR meeting, CPN-UML’s Raghuji Panta sought clarity on the agenda of the Prime Minister’s visit. “Prime Minister Dahal has not informed parliament about his India-visit despite repeated calls,” he said.

During the PM’s visit, Nepal should discuss the matters relating to the amendment to the 1950 treaty with India, and the publication of the report of the Eminent Persons Group, he suggested.

“There should be a discussion on a new treaty on the matter of the recruitment of Nepalis in the Indian Army. The agenda for the visit should be issues ranging from the halt of the SAARC Summit when Nepal is the current SAARC Chair, to air routes,” he said.
