CPN (UML) leader Bamdev Gautam has said that there is a need to make constitutional arrangement for the National Assembly to choose Prime Minister and present budget. Stating that the National Assembly is an important organ of the Federal Parliament, he said that the upper house should endorse a proposal in this regard.
Attending the special hour of the NA session today, leader Gautam said, “If the NA considers it necessary and accepts my proposal in this regard, we should pass it today. Finance Minister will speak out a budget speech for the next fiscal year. May we get a chance to pass budget from here,” stressed.
The NA member further reminded that the NA holds respect no less than the House of Representatives (HoR) and it has representation of the whole nation. “Currently, the HoR is out of its business. Why the NA, an integral organ of the Federal Parliament, should accept budget presented outside the parliament? Budget should be presented here,” he argued, commenting that budget lacks a draft of socialism, a key feature of the UML.
