KATHMANDU, Sept 10: A French parliamentary team which is on a seven-day visit to Nepal has shown interest in the constitution-making and peace processes in Nepal.



The delegation comprising three French Senators and French Ambassador to Nepal, among others, met Constituent Assembly (CA) Chairman Subas Nembang on Thursday.



The visiting team handed over copies of the constitution of France to distribute to the 601 CA members. The copies have been translated into Nepali language.







"The French team made the arrangement after finding Nepali lawmakers´ interest about French model of governance and other features of their constitution," Nembang told reporters after the meeting with the delegation.



They enquired about the latest progress, obstructions and other challenges in the constitution-writing process. "They also asked whether the country is adopting presidential or prime ministerial system. But, I said these things are yet to be decided and lawmakers are divided over the matter," Nembang said.



French Senators Yvon Collin, Simon Sutour and Jean Faure, French Ambassador to Nepal Gilles Henry Garault and administrator for the senators Philippe Brault, among other members, are in the visiting team.
