The legislature parliament has passed the seventh amendment bill to the interim constitution by a two-third majority, Thursday.  

A meeting of the legislature parliament Thursday evening passed the amendment that includes a provision in the constitution to allow president, vice president, prime minister and ministers to take oath of office and secrecy in mother respective tongues.

The government had introduced such bill after a controversy on language to be used for oath-taking surfaced when the Supreme Court scrapped the oath taken by erstwhile Vice President Parmananda Jha rendering his position inactive.

Today’s sitting of the legislature parliament also passed a resolution motion to reinstate Jha’s position.

Earlier, the main opposition the Unified CPN (Maoist) and Jha’s mother party Madhesi Janadhikar Forum (MJF) had objected to the bill saying it would not reinstate Jha’s position. They helped the constitution amendment bill pass after the ruling parties agreed to let the resolution motion pass. nepalnews.com

Ratnasambhava  - Why not choose Madhesi PM, too?   |116.65.215.xxx |2010-01-30 02:51:28
In an interim government formed after peoples' revolt held elcetion, political
parties dissappointed Pan Nepalese by appointing a Madheshi as president,
another Madhesi as Vice President, one who even took oath in foreign Hindi.
Despite he was thrown out of office by Supreme court, the three parties are
bringing him back even amending the Consution. On top of that, another Madhesi
is already Deputy PM. The only post left for Madhesi to fill is the post of PM.
Do you call this a fair democracy? Is this for what our people died? SHAME U 3
parties!
kiran  - post facto promulgation   |98.113.162.xxx |2010-01-29 22:47:52
The decision to allow oath taking in their respective mother tongue is good
decision in view of the various regions and languages we so called nepalese use.
But promulgating an amendment to suit a thug and reinsuting him to the post are
decisions that depoicts shear abuse of the trust people gave to the consution
body. It shows they will stoop to any level fulfill their clan (politician)
related problem even it comes at the cost of Nation, national feeling, public
protest.

जे जुन तरिकाले परमान्द
झाजीलाई उप राषट्रपति पदमा
ल्याइए पनि उनले आम नेपालीको
माया पाउन धेरै मुश्किल मर्नेछ
। उनी शुद्ध बिहारी मार्का

I have no comments but fear that same consutional embly sent there by the people
not to amend the interim consution but to draft and finalize the new consutions.
How much selfish are you all politicians? Can you say how was original face of
interim consutions? You take the country to hell really. Only god knows about
the fate of our country

Hello Sathi!
Jas jas le comment garnu bhayee ko chha, ma tapai haru sanga
sahmat chhun., well these neta are really, need to put in a zoo, but there are
somethig true we shd not forget it, the oath shd be taken either in Nepali or
Nepealese language only, not in Hindi. The Hindi speakers are from India, pure
Inidian, must learn Nepal, even tho' it is communicating language like a
English.

What a black day in the history of Nepal. India has once again succeeded in
Nepal. Give a few lakhs, Nepali people are even willing to sell their mothers,
daughters. What a shame! Hindi VP will be back now. What a disgrace to our
nationality. Once again india wins!
