: Nepal’s reinstated lower house of Parliament held its first meeting on Sunday during which the lawmakers belonging to the ruling Nepal Communist Party’s (NCP) splinter faction led by Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ boycotted the session.
President Bidya Devi Bhandari last week summoned the session of the House of Representatives in accordance with the Supreme Court’s Feb 24 ruling which annulled embattled Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli’s “unconstitutional” decision to dissolve it.
