Nembang rules out government’s role in statute-drafting
Ilam, November 23:
Constituent Assembly Chairman Subas Nembang today said the government would have no role in drafting constitution apart from building necessary physical structures in the CA.
Speaking at a press conference organised by the Ilam chapter of Federation of Nepali Journalists (FNJ) here today, he said, “I believe the CA sessions will not be disrupted because all the CA members are responsible persons.”
Urging political leadership to stop disputing on trivial issues, Nembang said the new constitution would be made public on May 28, 2010, as per the CA schedule. He also asked the leaders of different political parties not to express their views for and against the integration of People’ Liberation Army combatants.
“The PLA integration will be carried out as per the Comprehensive Peace Accord and the interim constitution,” Nembang said, adding, “Instead of discussing the PLA integration issues every where, I suggest that political leaders talk about issues related to drafting a new constitution as per the parameters defined by the CA Regulations.”
He added that there were chances of electing a woman as the vice-chairperson of the CA.
