Bhattarai urged MPs of the opposition party not to talk 'absurdly' about the Speaker

UML Secretary Yogesh Bhattarai, who is leading the government, has said that if the top leaders agree on the issue of the Public Accounts Committee under the House of Representatives, the current Chairman Rishikesh Pokharel will resign.

UML Secretary Bhattarai said that he would resign immediately if there was an agreement at the top level, after the matter was raised in the meeting of the parliamentary committee regarding the UML parliamentarian being the chairman of the audit committee and the government being run under the leadership of the UML.

'It is known that the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee is from the opposition party . UML knows that too . We have broken some traditions and have come in other ways. After the election of 2079, there was no election for the chairman of the committees, but it came by consensus,' Bhattarai said, 'It was by consensus. If there is another agreement between the leadership of the political parties, I don't think that the chairman should sit for even a minute . He will resign.' Bhattarai said that if there is an agreement between the leaders of the political parties, the chairman of the committee, Pokharel, will hand over the post and the party will also leave immediately.

Bhattarai also said that it is not right for the opposition MPs to take a policy of increasing pressure by raising questions about the Speaker. "There is no reason to put pressure on the chairman by raising such things again and again." The concerned party leadership sat down with the leaders of Congress and UML and settled this matter . There is no point in pinching repeatedly.'

MP Bhattarai also alleged that it was 'absurd' that the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee should not be from the ruling party. Bhattarai also told the MPs of the opposition party not to talk 'absurdly' about the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee. He said to the MPs of the opposition party, 'Let the top leadership of the party agree, we are ready to follow that decision.'
