Kathmandu, Dec 20: Health Minister Gagan Thapa has expressed the belief that the constitution amendment bill registered in the Legislature-Parliament would be passed.
Talking to media persons at Janakpur Airport on Monday, Minister Thapa said that discussion with the main opposition party, CPN (UML), was underway on the issue of constitution amendment and added that it was likely that UML would come to a consensus.
He said that province no 5 was proposed as per the proposal of CPN (UML) Chairman KP Sharma Oli in the past, saying not allowing the discussion on the amendment bill in the Parliament was an undemocratic move.
The Health Minister said that constitutional mishap would be invited in the country if the issue of federalism is hyped unnecessarily, saying the constitution amendment bill was crucial to make the constitution acceptable to all.
Responding a query, Minister Thapa clarified that election could not be held by keeping the constitution amendment proposal aside. RSS
