House of Representatives (HoR) Speaker Devraj Ghimire has said that there was no other alternative to consensus between the ruling and opposition parties on ending the House deadlock and selecting the parliamentary committee's chairs.
Talking to the media after holding a meeting with the top leaders of major political parties, the Speaker said that he was piling positive pressure on parties to forge consensus by being maximum flexible.
"The top leaders including the Prime Minister held serious talks today to run the House meeting but the leaders of the ruling and opposition parties failed to reach a complete conclusion. The next meeting of leaders including the Speaker is summoned at the Prime Minister's residence in Baluwatar at 10:30 am today," he said.
Speaker Ghimire hoped that the parties would come to a conclusion before 3:00 pm today and added that people's voices have been crushed after the House deadlock.
The Speaker has said that the House business will advance regularly on Tuesday even if consensus was not forged among the major parties.
