KATHMANDU, Feb 24: In a meeting of the House of Representatives (HoR) today, lawmaker Dr Amaresh Kumar Singh has sought the details of funds that entered the country through the non-governmental and international non-governmental sectors. He also wanted the government to demonstrate the utility of such funds.
The House should have access to information about the size of funds that streamed into the country through the NGOs and INGOs, he said.
He urged the government to issue a White Paper regarding this. He also questioned the government about the reason behind Nepal falling on the grey list of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).

Roshan Karki condemned the rape of a 12-year-old girl from Achham allegedly by her adult relative while she had been in India. He demanded the guarantee of justice for the survivor.

Similarly, Ranju Kumari Jha stressed the need of focusing on sorting out disputes surfaced during an implementation of the Pathibhara Cable Car Project in Taplejung. Speaking at a zero hour, she called for undertaking the development endeavors through cooperation with the locals rather than overlooking them.
Jha also urged the locals to be aware of the need for development. She wanted the government to take necessary actions to withdraw Nepal from the FATF grey list.
