Arriving at home, PM said, “MCC will be passed”

DHANGADHI: OCT. 22 – Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba has said that the US project Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) will be passed. Prime Minister Deuba, who arrived in the far west to observe and inspect the damage caused by the floods and landslides, said so. Replying to a question at a press conference organized by the Press Union, Deuba said that the MCC would not be amended.

He said that false issues were raised in the MCC agreement. “Nepal’s law does not apply to the World Bank (ADB),” said Prime Minister Deuba. It is said that MCC is a grant and Nepal’s law is applicable. ‘

Stating that they have already said that the law of Nepal is applicable to the MCC, Deuba said, “There is no question of the law of the United States.” There is an element in Nepal that says you don’t need to give for free, man. ‘

Similarly, Prime Minister Deuba has assured to bring short-term and long-term relief and reconstruction plans if the floods and landslides after the recent rains have caused great damage in the eastern and western regions. “There’s been a lot of human damage in the Far West,” he said. No road, no electricity. Farmers’ paddy crop has been severely damaged. We will bring a relief package to compensate for this. ‘

At the press conference, the Prime Minister added, “Similar damage has been done in the past.” I’m going there too. Rescue and relief work is underway. We have to work with a long-term plan. ‘

Will the upcoming general convention of Nepali Congress be held on time? Deuba, who is also the party president, refrained from saying that the election committee has been given all the responsibilities.

Prime Minister Deuba arrived in the Far West on Thursday to observe the flood and landslide damage. He is scheduled to return to Kathmandu today after inspecting the flood-affected eastern region of Kailali and Bardiya.
