The Nepali Congress has accused Prime Minister Balendra Sah of trying to weaken the parliament under the pretext of a two-thirds majority. In a meeting of the House of Representatives held on Thursday, Nepali Congress Whip Niskal Rai accused the Prime Minister of not being responsible towards the parliament. He commented that the Prime Minister himself is weakening democratic values ​​and parliamentary practice by ignoring the parliament.

'It is not only sad that the country's chief executive is ignoring a dignified institution like the parliament, but is he also indifferent to parliamentary practice, and Mr. Speaker? What is even sadder is that the honorable members of the ruling party are trying to normalize it,' Rai said from the Speaker's chair yesterday. The policy and program are the most important documents. This is the country's roadmap, and 30 million Nepalis are watching it. Therefore, the opposition's demand was not unnatural, our demand was only this, that the Prime Minister himself should answer the questions raised on such an important issue. Our only request was to make the Prime Minister, who is living in the country and has an office a few hundred meters away from the Parliament building, present in the Parliament. The policy and program are the government's priorities and action plan for the next one year, but unfortunately, there was no adequate discussion on such an important issue. We have serious questions, we want to ask those questions to the Prime Minister. According to Article 76 (10) of the Constitution, we want to make the Prime Minister accountable to the Parliament. But today, under the guise of a number close to two-thirds, there is an attempt to weaken the Parliament itself. The tendency to run away from questions is not a good sign for democracy.'

Quoting the statement of the ruling party's MP Manish Jha that the Parliament should be like a Gurukul and a university, the Prime Minister said that the university has started to become a bank like the Parliament. 'The Parliament is not a tea house, you can come here if you like, stay here if you like, go here if you like, the Parliament should be a Gurukul. The Parliament should be a university. This statement is a statement that I borrowed,' Rai says, 'I borrowed the expression of the honorable member of the ruling party who is very responsible towards democracy and the House and understands democratic values, but today the situation has become such that the Prime Minister himself has started banking on this Gurukul and the University.'
