Kathmandu, Feb 5: The CPN (UML) Parliamentary Party has issued a whip to the UML lawmakers to mandatorily attend the parliament's meetings and to play effective role in the winter session of the federal Parliament. The winter session is commencing from 4 pm today.    

Whip of the party Mahesh Bartaula said this directive has been issued in line with the decision that the party's meeting made on Sunday. As he said, the UML will shoulder the role of the main opposition party in a stronger and effective manner in the meetings of the current session compared to the past.
