Newly elected 18 members in the National Assembly, the Upper House in the Federal Parliament, took oath of office and secrecy today. NA chairman Ganesh Prasad Timilsina administered oath to the new members amidst a programme at the New Baneshwor-based Federal Parliament Building. They will have a six- year term. Among them, 16 are from the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) and two are from the Rastriya Janata Party (RJP) Nepal. Indira Devi Gautam, Gopi Bahadur Sarki Achchhami, Devendra Dahal, Tulasa Kumari Dahal, Radheshyam Paswan, Shekhar Kumar Singh, Mrigendra Kumar Singh Yadav, Ganga Kumari Belbase and Beduram Bhusal are the new faces entering the NA.

Similarly, the Federal Parliament Secretariat had provided them a bag containing the copy of the Constitution and laws. Through the January 23 NA election, seven women, two dalits, two persons with disabilities or from minorities group and seven from other groups had been elected the NA member. However, the nomination of one member by the President on the government recommendation is awaited. Those 18 lawmakers competing their two-year term in the NA were given farewell on Tuesday.
