On the occasion, CPN-UML Karnali Province Assembly party leader Yamlal Kandel said the province assembly members should be informed of the number of government projects and programs across the province. “Karnali has witnessed a nurtured culture of how to eat up revenues rather than utilizing them for province development. The government has been distributing programs in a disproportionate manner”.

Likewise, province assembly member of CPN (Unified Socialist) Devi Oli underlined the need to make a serious review for the development of the province and implementation of the constitution.

Province Assembly member of the Nepali Congress Yagya Bahadur Budha Chhetri said the development of the province was possible only through consensus, collaboration and understanding.

The next meeting of the province assembly is set to take place at 3.00 pm on January 16.
