Much talk, little action

Most points in the Inter-Provincial Council decisions have not been implemented.

On July 21, House Speaker Dev Raj Ghimire, Deputy Speaker Indira Ranamagar, National Assembly Chairperson Ganesh Prasad Timilsina, Deputy Chairperson Urmila Aryal and the speakers and deputy speakers of all seven Provincial Assemblies met in Kathmandu and made 12 significant decisions and recommendations to make law enforcement more effective. The gathering also agreed to establish a parliamentary mechanism to implement constitutionally guaranteed women's rights and promote women's empowerment.
