Onsari Gharti's role as Speaker questionable: Bijukchhe

KATHMANDU: Lawmaker Narayan Man Bijukchhe, who is also the chairman of Nepal Workers and Peasants Party, said Onsari Gharti's role as the Speaker was questionable.

He accused Gharti, a leader of CPN Maoist Centre, of being more a cadre of political party rather executing her positional responsibilities as the Speaker.

Her performance has made it clear that right person was not chosen for the position, he said.

Bijukchhe was speaking at an interaction organised by Rafat Sanchar in Bhaktapur today.

According to him, it was a mistake on the part of Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal to send Bimalendra Nidhi to India as the Nepali Prime Minister's special envoy.
