The main opposition Maoist Center has said that the parliamentary practice of not being the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee of the House of Representatives should be followed without making excuses.

After UML MP Yogesh Bhattarai warned not to do 'absurd things' when he was in UML in the past as the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee was with the ruling party, Modi asked him to follow the practice of having the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee with the opposition instead of saying 'but and but'.

There was a dispute between the UML and the Maoists regarding the fact that the Speaker of the Parliament belongs to the ruling party in the meeting of the Public Accounts Committee on Sunday. The MPs of UML are saying not to question the Speaker, while the MPs of Maoist are saying that according to parliamentary practice, the Speaker should be given to the opposition.

Maoist MP Modi reminded that UML's Rishikesh Porkhel became the chairman as the main opposition MP. After the election of 2079, after the UML left the government, Pokharel was given the chairmanship as an opposition MP, he said.

Modi said that the parliamentary practice of not giving the chairman of the audit committee to the opposition in the past should not be followed even now. He said that if mistakes were made in the past, they should not be repeated now. "Repeat or correct some kind of mistake made by someone in the past," Modi said, "The Public Accounts Committee should be given to the opposition, but there is nothing in it."

In the past, when UML was in the opposition, Congress MP Bharat Shah was the chairman of the audit committee. At that time, UML demanded to get the chairman. At that time, MP Modi said that no one had said that the ruling party had said 'absurd things' by the UML. UML had boycotted the opposition by saying that they did not give the chairman of the audit committee and that they would not sit in the committee meeting under the leadership of Bharat Shah .

Committee member Sabati Pokharel objected to the statement that there are traders and brokers of Nepal Electricity Authority in the Accounts Committee in the meeting of the House of Representatives. "The chairman said there is a broker MP in the parliament. How fair is it to call your member a broker? How do you live with a broker MP here . After asking serious questions about their members, they should discuss it,' Modi said.

Public Accounts Committee is discussing non-payment of dues by consuming electricity from dedicated and trunk lines.
