New statute cannot address every demand of all: Nembang

KATHMANDU, June 17: Chairman of the Constituent Assembly (CA), Subas Nembang, has said that the new constitution should be promulgated as soon as possible by institutionalizing the achievements on the basis of maximum consensus as the new constitution could not address cent percent demands of all.

After receiving a memorandum at his office, Singha Durbar, submitted by a delegation of the Nepal Federation of Indigenous Nationalities (NEFIN) regarding the 16-point agreement signed among four major political parties on June 8, CA Chair Nembang urged all not to make any activities that lead to dissolve the CA as the first CA was dissolved without promulgating the new constitution due to some argument over the issues that were close to consensus.


--------On the occasion, he assured of taking the memo to the Draft Committee of the CA. Nembang informed that the draft of the new constitution would be brought before the people as the new constitution should be a document of all parties, groups and languages.

The CA Chair further said that the new constitution would be promulgated by adopting rules, norms and values of the CA.

Submitting the seven-point memo, NEFIN Chairperson Nagendra Kumar Kumal said that the new federal constitution along with naming should be promulgated on the basis of agreement signed with them, among others. RSS
