In the meeting, PM Dahal stated that it was difficult for the provinces to work because the federal laws had not been made and the police adjustment process had not been completed.
“The status of implementation of federalism has not met expectations, and provinces are experiencing direct consequences. The functions of Chief Ministers and provincial governments have been hampered,” he said. He added that anti-federalist forces have had a chance to criticize the system and the presence of provincial governments due to this issue. He called for the prompt conclusion of the adjustment process within the next 15 days, under the Act.
The Prime Minister is for completing the process of adjustment within 15 days stating that even after the promulgation of the Nepal Police (Province Police Operation and Coordination) Act 2076, the adjustment has not progressed.
