NCP task force formed to study MCC submits report



KATHMANDU: The task force formed by the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) to study the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) Compact has submitted its report to Chairmen on Friday.

The task force submitted the report to Chairman and PM KP Oli and Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal at prime minister’s residence in Baluwatar.

The report has suggested amending the Compact before endorsing it through the Parliament.

It should be noted the US officials have already made it clear that the Compact can’t be amended now.

A central committee meeting of the NCP held from January 29 to February 2 had formed a three-member task force under the coordination of senior leader Jhalanath Khanal to carry out the study about the MCC agreement.

Standing Committee member Bhim Rawal and Foreign Minister Pradeep Kumar Gyawali are the members of the task force.
