Parliament meetings have been obstructed for the past few days. In Thursday's meeting, lawmakers belonging to the ruling and opposition parties were engaged in a brawl in the parliament. When the lawmakers belonging to the opposition parties surrounded the home minister to prevent him from speaking in the House, the MPs, including the Chairman of CPN-UML, started to literally retaliate, turning the House of Representatives into a kind of "battlefield."
