Consensus Must For Statute Revision

Following the formation of coalition government of Nepali Congress and CPN-UML about six months ago, the oppositional politics has drastically weakened in the country. In the parliamentary democracy, the role of opposition is considered important to supervise the government’s activities and improve its performance. In principle, the main opposition in the parliament checks the possible abuse of power by the governing parties. It keeps a close eye on the Bills and budget allocation of the government to make sure that state's resources and tax payers' money have been judiciously and transparently spent.
