KATHMANDU: Amid the continued House obstruction by the main opposition CPN-UML, Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota adjourned the meeting of the House of Representatives (HoR) until Tuesday.
The UML lawmakers picked the rostrum and chanted slogans against Speaker Sapkota shortly after the latter began Sunday’s House proceedings. Speaker Sapkota deferred the meeting for 15 minutes and held consultations with UML Chief Whip Bishal Bhattarai, Whip Shanta Chaudhary and lawmaker Khagaraj Adhikari. However, the meeting could not forge consensus, leading the next meeting toward obstruction again.
The main opposition has been objecting to Speaker Sapkota’s ‘failure’ to dismiss 14 lawmakers whom the party had sacked before the split.
It is to be noted that the UML had sacked 14 lawmakers including the then senior leader Madhav Kumar Nepal.
