KATHMANDU: The Constituent Assembly has transformed into the Parliament on Sunday after successfully promulgating the new Nepal's Constitution 2072 with the overwhelming two-thirds majority.

At the final meeting of the constitution writing body today, CA Chairman Subas Chandra Nembang announced dissolution of the CA, as per Article 296 of the new Constitution.

The CA, now, will transform into the Legislature-Parliament, as per the Constitution.

Before announcing the dissolution, Nembang had read out major tasks of the CA since the first election to the constitution drafting body in 2008.

He also explained various features of the new Constitution.

The leader said the promulgation of new Constitution has fulfilled Nepali people's six and half decade long dream of Nepali people.

"Successful implementation of the Constitution, however, is challenging," Nembang said, "It's signs are already in front of us now."

The political leadership has to show its competence with wisdom in implementation of the historic document, he said.

He claimed that the constitution drafting process was democratic, inclusive and participatory.

Hinting toward agitating Madhes-centric parties, Nembang said there is still adequate space for amendment to improve it.

"There are still many shortcomings, and all's wishes might have not been fulfilled," the CA Chair acknowledged, "May there be unity among parties in its implementation."

The CA, elected from the second CA elections on November 19, 2013, had held its first meeting on January 22, 2014.

The CA sat for 135 times, including 130 full meetings, in 13o days, according to Nembang.
