Opposition Obstruction

The Nepali Congress has been obstructing the budget session since its commencement on May 10, but allowed the President to table government policies and programs.

Allegations Against Home Minister

Home Minister Lamichhane faces allegations of fraud in a cooperative scheme, with evidence pointing to his involvement, prompting an investigation despite his denial of any wrongdoing.
