MCC will be tabled in parliament now: NC leader Poudel

KATHMANDU, Feb 14: Leader of the ruling Nepali Congress (NC), Ram Chandra Poudel has maintained that the Millennium Corporate Challenge (MCC) will now be tabled in parliament. No one can avoid the MCC from tabling in parliament, Poudel said, speaking during an event organized by the Bhanubhakta Literature Study Committee. Leader Poudel also accused the Speaker of the House of Representatives (HoR) of barring the lawmakers from tabling the MCC in parliament. Besides, Poudel also maintained that the impeachment motion against the Chief Justice Cholendra Shumsher JB Rana was a much needed move. At the time when the Nepal Bar Association and Justices of the Supreme Court are raising questions against CJ Rana, registration of the motion is natural. “Besides, CJ Rana himself had opted for the motion over resignation,” he added.

Georgian parliament speaker resigns

Georgian parliament speaker Archil Talakvadze announced his resignation on Saturday. "Given that several months of tense negotiations between the ruling party and the opposition parties ended with an agreement, where I was involved along with the party chairman, I think it would be appropriate to leave the position of Speaker and nominate a person who will lead the work of the parliament from a more neutral position," said Talakvadze at a news briefing. According to Irakli Kobakhidze, chairman of the ruling Georgian Dream party, Kakha Kuchava will be nominated for the post of parliament speaker while Talakvadze will hold the position of vice speaker.
