Lawmakers ask government to hold talks with agitating teachers



KATHMANDU: Lawmakers have suggested the government to hold talks with the agitating teachers to address their demands.

Speaking during today’s session of the House of Representatives (HoR), Nepal Communist Party lawmaker Khagaraj Adhikari urged the government to address the demands of the agitating teachers through talks. The voices of the temporary teachers, he argued, should not be left unheeded.

Nepali Congress lawmaker Bal Krishna Khand raised concern over the high-handedness of the police in the peaceful demonstration of the teachers. He warned the government to refrain from suppressing the teachers.

Lawmaker Mahendra Raya Yadav said that the government should provide treatment expenses to teachers, who have been injured in the course of clash with the police.

Similarly, lawmakers, including Jip Tshiring Lama, Nar Bahadur Dhami, among others drew the government’s attention to resolve the problems of temporary teachers.
