KATHMANDU:- Chairperson of the Shram Sanskriti Party (SSP), Harkaraj Rai has said that the constitution could be amended by retaining its basic structure.
Speaking at today’s House of Representatives (HoR) meeting, he said we need to be serious about the issue of constitutional amendment. “We can amend other matters while keeping the basic structure of the constitution intact. We need to be serious about amendments, if this is not understood, there is a risk of problems,” he said.
The SSP Chairman thanked the government for its 100-day efforts towards promoting good governance, controlling corruption, and providing effective services.
Mentioning that he visited the Mahakali region some time ago, Chairman Rai urged to speed up the construction of the Darchula–Tinkar road. He also expressed the view that national pride projects should now be focused on border areas.
Chairman Rai drew the government’s attention to arranging for the rehabilitation of squatters and people living in unorganized settlements, suggesting that land ownership documents be provided to such people as soon as possible.
He suggested making the BP Koirala Institute of Health Sciences in Dharan a university and proposed decentralizing health services.(RSS)
