KATHMANDU – House of Representatives (HoR) Speaker Devraj Ghimire has expressed his hope that the fifth Session of the Federal Parliament that commenced today will be productive in terms of enacting laws and addressing the issues of public concerns.

Welcoming the HoR members to the meeting, the Speaker said the parliament carries a significant value in democracy, and disputes, discussions, and dialogues are expected in the parliament. “But our conclusions should be for finding an agreement. Political parties representing here with people’s mandate should not confine themselves to a narrow space but should explore a wider course for the national interests.”

The respectful exchanges of logic and opinions by ruling and opposition parties would help make the parliamentary function effective, he said, adding that mutual respect, cooperation, and unity will help find a historic success for formulating policies and laws by ending existing issues in the nation.

“I hope the Session will inspire all of us to deliver in the interest of the nation and citizens by going on with good practices of the past,” he said.
