The Water Resources Bill, 2081 has been passed by the House of Representatives. The Water Resources Bill was passed by the majority of the House of Representatives on Monday.

'This bill has come because of the feeling that yesterday's laws should be amended and laws made up-to-date. What is the capacity of our water? It is mentioned in this bill where it should be protected and how the distribution of water can be done in a fair manner,' he said, 'this law has been done to ensure the rights of our three levels of government, to use the water that needs to be used and to make it more responsible in matters of profit and loss.
