Lawmakers Criticize Government Over Squatter Management, Violence, Budget Allocation, and Governance

Kathmandu. In the zero hour of Friday's National Assembly meeting, lawmakers strongly criticized the government. They drew the government's attention to squatter management, rising violence against women, disorganized budget allocation, and the government's style of functioning.

Lawmaker Goma Devi Timalsina accused the government, which espouses good governance, of demolishing the homes of the poor and helpless squatters, leaving them in distress. Stating that squatters in holding centers are not receiving food, water, or medicine, she demanded an answer from the government.
