Prime Minister Balen Shah Avoids Parliament Sessions
Kathmandu. A few days after the President presented the government's policy and program in Parliament, the Prime Minister Balen Shah's speech was intensely sought. Because Prime Minister Balen, who got up and left in the middle while President Ramchandra Paudel was reading the government's policy and program in the joint meeting of both houses, was not seen in the parliamentary meeting thereafter.
He also did not propose the motion 'Let the discussion on the policy and program be initiated'. This task was done by Finance Minister Dr. Swarnim Wagle. After that, he also broke the tradition of answering the questions raised by the MPs during the discussion. During that time, the opposition parties obstructed the parliamentary meeting, yet Prime Minister Balen did not attend. Finance Minister Dr. Wagle himself answered the questions raised by the MPs.
The opposition MPs' demand that the Prime Minister should attend the meeting and answer the questions raised on the policy and program remained unfulfilled. Because the policy and program were presented in Parliament and passed by a majority after discussion.
Why is Prime Minister Balen running away from Parliament? Is it right for the Prime Minister to do this in a country with a parliamentary system? What is the practice in other countries? Can be seen in the video.
