Govt inclined to weakening rule of law: Leader Khand

JANAKPURDHAM, June 18: Nepali Congress Central Committee member, Bal Kriashna Khand, has said that raising the issue of directly elected executive President is to invite autocracy.

At a news conference organized at Janakpurdham on Monday, NC leader Khand expressed the view that the government was inclined towards making the rule of law weak.

He further said that the budget unveiled by the federal government was only to create problems for the people.

On a different note, leader Khand said that the opposition party is not weak and it has been watching the activities of the government in view of its honeymoon period, saying the NC, the main opposition party in parliament, have been carrying out serious discussion over the government’s performance.

Noting that it was necessary to address the demands of Madhes through constitution amendment, he said the role of Madhes-based parties was not as expected in this regard.

Also the Chief Whip of NC, Khand, said that it was necessary that all should focus their attention to make the federalism and democracy strong. RSS
