Minister Lekhak shared that the constitution would be amended at the consensus of all parties.
KATHMANDU: Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak has said a taskforce would be formed soon to amend the constitution, and the government has forwarded necessary homework for the same.
Addressing the ninth national conference of the Nepal National Dalit Welfare Organisation, Minister Lekhak shared that the constitution would be amended at the consensus of all parties.
He further said the Nepali Congress and CPN (UML) are going to form a separate taskforce within a few days to do the necessary homework for the constitution amendment.
“At first, we will identify the issues for amendment by holding discussion, and then phase-wise talks and discussion will be held with all political parties. The Constitution will be amended by forging consensus on the content. It will take a few times for the same,” argued the Home Minister.
Minister Lekhak clarified that the constitution is going to be amended to further strengthen it, not to weaken inclusiveness.
