The National Assembly meeting, originally scheduled for 11:00 AM today, has been rescheduled to 12:30 PM, according to General Secretary Padam Prasad Pandey.
Today’s session will focus on several important legislative discussions, including the “Bill to Amend Certain Nepal Acts Related to Investment Facilitation, 2081,” the Financial Bill, the National Debt Collection Bill, and the Customs Tariff Bill. These discussions are crucial for advancing the nation’s economic and financial policies.
In addition to these economic matters, the meeting’s agenda includes significant proposals related to education and cultural preservation. Education, Science, and Technology Minister Sumana Shrestha will present a proposal for consideration of the “Tilganga Eye University Bill, 2081.” This bill aims to establish a dedicated institution for ophthalmic education and research, enhancing Nepal’s capabilities in eye care and medical education.
Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation Minister Hit Bahadur Tamang will propose a discussion on the amendments made by the House of Representatives to the “Archival Preservation (First Amendment) Bill, 2077.” This bill focuses on the preservation and protection of important historical records, ensuring that Nepal’s rich cultural heritage is maintained for future generations.
The rescheduled meeting highlights the National Assembly’s commitment to addressing critical legislative matters, with a focus on both economic development and cultural preservation. The proposed bills reflect the government’s efforts to facilitate investment, manage national debt, streamline customs tariffs, advance education, and preserve cultural records.
As the National Assembly convenes later today, these discussions will play a pivotal role in shaping Nepal’s legislative landscape, driving progress in key sectors, and fostering national development.
