KATHMANDU: Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota has called a Business Advisory Committee (BAC) meeting prior to the meeting of the House of Representatives (HoR).

Speaker Sapkota’s secretariat has informed that a BAC meeting has been called for 11:30 am today.

The HoR meeting is taking place at 1 pm today. The BAC meeting has been called prior to this. It is learnt that the BAC meeting will dwell on the endorsement of the MCC and its possibility of inclusion in today’s agenda items of the parliament.

Nepali Congress (NC) President and Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba on Tuesday urged Speaker Sapkota to call a BAC meeting and include the MCC as an agenda of the HoR meeting.

NC in its parliamentary party (PP) meeting on Tuesday had decided to table the MCC in the House meeting.

However, the agenda item unveiled by the federal parliament secretariat yesterday does not include MCC.
