KATHMANDU: The National Assembly has passed the government’s policy and programme by a majority vote.
The policy and programme was endorsed after Finance Minister Dr Swarnim Wagle responded to lawmakers on behalf of Prime Minister Balendra Shah.
The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP), which does not have representation in the National Assembly, was absent from the voting process.
President Ramchandra Paudel had presented the government’s policy and programme at a joint session of the Federal Parliament three days ago.
