The government has recommended to the President to convene the winter session of the Federal Parliament starting from January 18 to finalize the pending 20 bills and 6 ordinances brought by the government recently. As the budget has to be brought in the next session, there will also be an important discussion about the 'pre-budget' of the government in this session.

Ordinances brought by the government must be submitted in the first session of the Parliament, and there is a legal obligation to pass the replacement bill within 60 days. 

The cabinet meeting held on Monday decided to recommend President Ramchandra Paudel to convene the session after the government was widely criticized for trying to run the government by bringing an ordinance to cancel the session of the parliament.

 After the time for convening the session was approaching, Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli had a discussion with Sher Bahadur Deuba, Chairman of the ruling Congress and the largest party in Parliament, on Monday morning. After that, he also consulted with Speaker Devraj Ghimire. In both the meetings held at the Prime Minister's residence, Baluwatar, Oli discussed the convening of the session and the 'business' of the Parliament.

Four months and 18 days after that, the government recommended for convening the winter session. Instead of convening the Parliament session soon, the government has brought six ordinances for its own convenience. An ordinance on the same title has also been issued by writing a letter to withdraw the bill which is under discussion in the parliamentary committee.

The government also brought the general law through an ordinance and also wrote a letter to withdraw the bill that was under discussion every week and issued an ordinance. Otherwise, he warned that a special session would be called.
