MCC should be taken to Parliamentary Committee instead of Parliament: Dahal

KATHMANDU : CPN (Maoist Centre) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal opined that the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) should be taken to the Parliamentary Committee instead of tabling in the Parliament.

During a meeting of the ruling coalition held in Baluwatar on Sunday morning, the Maoist Centre Chairman urged Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba to take the $500 million compact to the Parliamentary Committee instead of the Parliament.

“If you want to table the MCC in the Parliament at any cost, it will be better to take the issue to the Committee for discussions. But, the Prime Minister is in favour of tabling the MCC in the Parliament and collecting the views,” Dahal’s personal secretary Ganga Dahal said.
