PM Dahal presents proposal in parliament, seeking vote of confidence
Kathmandu: CPN (Maoist Centre) Chairperson and Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ has presented a proposal in the House of Representatives today as per the Rule 155 of the House of Representatives Regulations, 2079BS, seeking a vote of confidence in accordance with Article 100, Sub-Article (2) of the Constitution of Nepal.
Addressing the meeting of the House of Representatives, the Prime Minister tabled the proposal, seeking that the House give him the vote of confidence as the Prime Minister. Making a statement in the parliament, he urged lawmakers to give him the vote of confidence for preventing various sorts of anomalies inconsistent with the spirit of the constitution. He argued on the occasion that it was necessary for the government to get the confidence vote for improving the business environment in the economy and for bringing about a change in the social anarchy, rage and negative thinking engendered by the political instability.
“I need the support of the parliament to feel proud of the nationalism, self-worth and sovereignty by defending the achievements made from all the past movements. I assure the esteemed parliament that thousands of new startups and entrepreneurship ventures would be started within some months alone. Systematic efforts would be made towards self-reliance,” the Prime Minister said.
Noting that the initiations made so far in the good governance front have restored the public faith towards the democracy, he said confidence of the citizens towards the State would be enhanced by means of public service delivery and good governance. After the Prime Minister’s statement, the top leaders of the rest of the political parties have been putting their views on party-wise.
The PM is seeking a vote of confidence from the parliament today after he changed the governing coalition and as a consequence the Nepali Congress which had been supporting that coalition withdrew its support.
