President of Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) and parliamentary party leader Rabi Lamichhane has said peoples' concerns were shadowed. The government has ignored significant issues of the country in the appropriation bill.
Addressing the ongoing discussion in the House of Representatives on budget allocation to different ministries today, he blamed the government that it was focused more on its existence rather than adequate attention to important agenda before the country. He demanded a special committee to study on fake Bhutanese refugee scam.
President Lamichhane also demanded pesticide test of vegetables.
Underscoring the need for amending budget, President Lamichhane drew the attention of Home Minister Narayan Kaji Shrestha to curb black marketing and smuggling on border.
Similarly, he suggested the government that it made a provision for police constables and head constables to opt for voluntary retirement in 16 years of service while of junior officer in 18 and senior officers in 20. The pension system should be made effective only after 20 years of service, he recommended.
