Lawmakers divided over Guthi Bill



KATHMANDU: Lawmakers of the ruling parties have put forth their views in favor of the Guthi Bill while those from the opposition protested it during a meeting of parliament on Thursday.

The Guthi Bill has been registered in the National Assembly a few days ago to manage the land of different guthis.

On the occasion, lawmakers of the ruling parties said that the bill, brought as per Article 290 of the constitution, is going to make the people owner of the land and not the Guthi Sansthan (the government entity looking after the guthis) while the lawmakers of the opposition parties blamed the government of bringing the bill by undervaluing the religion, tradition and culture.
