The Non-Governmental Bill, registered for the first time in the history of the Koshi State Assembly, is being 'tabled' in the State Assembly on Thursday. With the aim of protecting, promoting and developing all the national languages spoken in the province, the 'Bill, 2081, made to regulate the language of Koshi Province government work', proposed by Maoist MP Gombu Sherpa and Unified Socialist MP Khinu Longwa Limbu, will be tabled in the provincial assembly meeting at 1 o'clock on Thursday.
In order to deactivate it, the ruling MPs of UML-Congress are going to stand in opposition. For that, the parties are applying 'whip' to their MPs. There are 40 UML and 29 Congress MPs in the state assembly.
According to an MP of UML, the party has issued a whip to vote against the bill. A few days ago, through the cabinet meeting, the ruling coalition has already decided to replace it and bring a separate bill from the government side. This exemption was registered in the provincial assembly on the 18th. In the
bill, it is proposed to make Maithili (11.19 percent) and Limbu/Yakthung (7.31 percent) languages widely used in the state as the main languages for documenting and documenting government work documents. In addition, for the purpose of providing services in these languages, it is also mentioned that at least 1 language translator should be maintained in each respective office.
Provision of teaching in the mother tongue from school level to post-graduate level, encouragement in publishing newspapers and literature, formation of advisory group with linguists and language development institute, translation of exam syllabus of Public Service Commission are included in the bill.
The bill clarifies that the provincial government should give priority to the language spoken by the majority of the people when determining the language of work, that the language prevalent at the local level also has the right to make it the language of government work and that the use of the language can be ensured according to the work area.
MPs Gombu Sherpa and Khinu Longwa registered a non-governmental bill, it seems that an uncomfortable situation has arisen in the ruling party. "Because we have submitted this bill, the ruling party has become a trap," said MP Longwa, "We could have pushed forward this bill together, we don't know why another one was registered."
