Citizenship Bill will be endorsed: Prachanda



BIRATNAGAR: CPN-Maoist Center Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘ Prachanda’ has said the Citizenship Bill will be endorsed by the National Assembly.

Talking to media persons briefly at Biratnagar Airport today, the Maoist Center Chair said the Bill had again entered the process and would be passed by the Upper House.

As he said, the President consulting with the Nepal Army officials in regard with the Bill procedures is usual. “The Bill has already entered the process, it will be endorsed and the President will certify it.”

It may be noted that the Lower House on August 18 again endorsed the Bill that the President returned for reconsideration. The HoR passed the document as it is.

Refuting rumors that a political crisis is likely in the country, he said no such thing would happen.

He took time to say that there would be an electoral alliance among the five political parties in all 165 electoral constituencies in the upcoming elections. The seat allocations towards that will conclude by the next 15 days, according to the leader.
