Discussion on MCC starts amid UML obstruction



KATHMANDU: The meeting of the House of Representatives (HoR) called for today has begun.

Finance Minister Janardan Sharma proposed the House to hold a general deliberation on the US-aid Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) Compact reached between the Governments of Nepal and the US.

Lawmakers are putting forth their views on MCC at the moment as the main opposition continues its obstruction.
