KATHMANDU, Sept 18: Loktantrik Samajwadi Party (LSP) has urged all parties concerned to ensure timely authentication of the Citizenship Bill. A meeting of the LSP Central Executive Committee on September 16 demanded a guarantee of citizens' rights by authenticating the Bill, according to a statement issued on Saturday.
The party would be forced to resort to struggle for safeguarding nationality, democracy, human rights, and people's rights if the Bill is not certified by September 20, the meeting chaired by party chairperson Mahantha Thakur warned.
Citizenship Amendment Bill is wrong, its certification process...
The Bill that was returned by President Bidya Devi Bhandari for reconsideration, and again passed by both the Houses of the federal Parliament has reached the Office of the President for authentication.
Stating that the government's decision to scrap cases related to Tikapur incident and release arrestees including Resham Chaudhary was positive, he urged it to do away with the Mahottari incident as well.
