House of Representatives meeting taking place today



KATHMANDU: A meeting of the House of Representatives (HoR) is taking place today afternoon.

The meeting, which was scheduled at 3 o’clock on Tuesday, was postponed due to the Speaker and Prime Minister’s involvement in the swearing-in ceremony of Chief Justice Bishowambhar Prasad Shrestha.
