Kathmandu, May 30
The main opposition Nepali Congress has called a meeting of its Parliamentary Party to discuss the annual budget statement for next fiscal year 2018/19 that the government tabled in Parliament on Tuesday.
The meeting will take place at 11 am at the Parliamentary Party office in Singhadarbar, according to the party’s Chief Whip Bal Krishna Khand.
Whereas the budget announcement has drawn mixed responses from various political parties and stakeholders of multiple sectors, the main opposition has called the meeting to decide the party’s official response on the issue.
Earlier, the party had silently supported the government’s annual policy and programme though some leaders had criticised the policy documents.
Khand also informs the meeting will also discuss other contemporary political issues.
