Inaugurating the interaction program on 'Inter-State Legislature' organized by the Lumbini Provincial Assembly today, Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota said, "The tendency to interpret the law according to one's own convenience has created problems."
Stressing on the need for the legislature to focus on law making, Speaker Sapkota said that he would seriously look into the flaws in the structure of the federal parliament and the state legislature and work for the solution of its problems.
He also said that it was important to play a historic role in making our sovereign parliament alive, people-oriented and dignified.

In the interaction program that started from today, the Speaker and the Deputy Speaker of the same province will discuss about the five years of experience, challenges and possibilities in the implementation of federalism.
