House business goes on amid RSP’s obstruction, RPP’s boycott

Until the government decides to form a panel to investigate Home Minister Lekhak, the two opposition parties will continue their protest, says RPP chief whip Gyanendra Bahadur Shahi.

While lawmakers from the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) and the Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP)—the fourth and the fifth largest parties in the House of Representatives, respectively—continued obstruction of the House on Sunday demanding Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak’s resignation, Speaker Devraj Ghimire carried forward the scheduled business.
