NC expresses its objection citing controversial figure appointed as minister



KATHMANDU: Nepali Congress Whip Sushila Thing has called attention of the Speaker, pointing out that an individual with controversial image was included in the present Council of Ministers.

Speaking at the outset of the meeting of the House of Representatives today, she alleged that the Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ has rewarded a person with controversial image linked to cooperative fraud by appointing as minister instead of taking legal action against that person.

She also, through the Speaker, drew the attention of the government that no action has been taken when the then Vice President Nanda Bahadur Pun’s Secretariat and his family member were found involved in gold smuggling.

Whip Thing said the House cannot carry out its business in an effective way without holding thorough discussions on all the above topics.
