House meeting adjourned for 15 minutes after opposition obstruction



KATHMANDU: Speaker Dol Prasad Aryal adjourned the House of Representatives meeting for 15 minutes on Thursday after continuous obstruction by opposition parties.

The opposition has been demanding that Prime Minister Balendra Shah personally respond to questions raised during discussions on the government’s policy and programme.

Following persistent protests in the House, the Speaker temporarily suspended the meeting.

Opposition lawmakers had also obstructed Wednesday’s House session throughout the day. After discussions failed to produce an agreement by evening, the meeting was adjourned.
