PM Oli instructs UML lawmakers to counter opposition arguments with facts and data



KATHMANDU: Prime Minister and CPN-UML Chair KP Sharma Oli has directed party lawmakers to counter opposition arguments with facts and data during parliamentary discussions on the national budget.

Speaking at a UML parliamentary party meeting held at Lhotse Hall of the Federal Parliament Building in New Baneshwar, Oli emphasized the need for members to present well-reasoned arguments in support of the budget.

“From tomorrow, discussions on the budget will begin. Honorable members must clearly explain why the budget is justified. The opposition will present misleading arguments designed to shake our confidence,” Oli said. “We must firmly and logically refute those arguments with facts and statistics.”

He also advised lawmakers to speak concisely and remain focused on their subject while addressing the House.
