Argument against TRC Bill is anti-peace process stance: Minister Sharma

By TRN Online, Kathmandu, Mar. 26: Minister for Communication and Information Technology Rekha Sharma has viewed that the expression of dissatisfaction with the Bill (third amendment) on Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) and enforced disappearance is tantamount to expression against the peace process.

To argue against the TRC Bill tabled today runs counter to peace process, said Minister Sharma talking to journalists at the Federal Parliament building.

She observed that those who do not like peace process and those who have been rejecting it have protested the Bill. She termed the Bill as common issue of those who signed the peace accord and also of those which are in the parliament.

"Peace process is the matter of the citizens and the political parties alike".

She, however, said maximum efforts will be made to forge consensus on the Bill among the political parties in the parliament.
