Nepal, June 11 -- Shram Sanskriti Party Chair and lawmaker Harka Raj Rai Sampang demanded that Prime Minister Balendra Shah appear in the House of Representatives (HoR) and correct his remarks on border issues.

Speaking at Thursday's HoR session, Sampang objected to the Prime Minister's May 31 statement, in which he said, "Not only has India encroached on Nepal's territory, but also has Nepal encroached on Indian land."

He said the statement should be removed from the parliamentary record and that the Prime Minister Shah must personally appear in the parliament to correct it.

Sampang also urged that parliamentary proceedings be conducted in accordance with established rules and procedures.
