National Assembly Chairman Dahal Highlights Need for Federal-Provincial Coordination

Kailali. Chairman of the National Assembly, Narayan Prasad Dahal, has emphasized that the Federal Parliament must address the complaint of lack of coordination between local and provincial governments and the federal government. He said this on Saturday while addressing the Inter-legislative Conference organized by the Inter-legislative Forum in Tikapur.

Acknowledging that the lack of necessary laws from the federal government has caused problems for the provincial and local levels, he said that a conducive environment should be created for the provincial and local levels to work with their constitutional rights.

'The delay in lawmaking by the federal government has prevented the provincial governments from making and implementing necessary laws', he said. He stated that the role of all three tiers is important in strengthening democracy by embracing the sentiments of the people.

Chairman Dahal said that the Federal Parliament needs to show more promptness in lawmaking. He said, 'Why have lawmaking activities not been happening at a rapid pace? It is necessary to find the reasons for that. The people have not sent us to talk.'

The conference is attended by Speakers of both houses of the Federal Parliament and all seven provincial assemblies. The conference will conclude tomorrow.
