As the parties did not reach an agreement, the meeting of the House of Representatives called for Tuesday has been adjourned until 1 pm on Wednesday. Earlier, the meeting of the House of Representatives, which was called for 11 am, was postponed until 2 pm. The National Assembly meeting is going on.

There was a deadlock in the Parliament after the opposition parties took a stand that Home Minister Ramesh Akhtar should resign on the issue of human trafficking through the visit visa. On Tuesday, the meeting of the opposition party led by the leader of the main opposition party, Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, concluded that the Home Minister Ramesh Akhtar should resign for investigation. After that, the speaker had a discussion with the chief whips of the opposition and the ruling party.

Monday's discussion between the top leaders of the ruling and main opposition parties to clear the obstruction of parliament was inconclusive. Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, Congress Chairman Sher Bahadur Deuba, Chief Opposition Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal had a discussion on Monday evening at Singh Darbar, but no agreement could be reached as they were in their respective positions.

The opposition party has been obstructing the Parliament demanding the resignation of Home Minister Ramesh Akhtar over the visit visa case. The opposition party alleges that the staff of the Home Minister's Secretariat is involved in the case of Nepalis going abroad on visit visas through Tribhuvan International Airport.

On this basis, the opposition has been obstructing the parliament by demanding that the home minister should be investigated and for that he should resign. The opposition party has demanded an investigation saying that immigration officials are extorting millions by causing unnecessary suffering under the guise of standards made by the Ministry of Home Affairs.
