The first meeting of federal parliament has concluded by passing the interim working procedure 2074. The next meeting of House of Representatives (HoR) and National Assembly will be held at 11 am Tuesday. Mahantha Thakur and Tara Devi Bhatta chaired the meeting of HoR and National Assembly respectively today and will continue to chair the meetings until speaker and chairman of the respective Houses are elected. The letter of president announcing the first session of the federal parliament was read in the beginning. The first meeting of HoR and National Assembly was held separately despite the constitution requiring the president to address the first meeting of the federal parliament, and a joint meeting of the two Houses during the address. President Bidhya Devi Bhandari will address the joint meeting of the two Houses later Monday.
