Dahal said that only the children of Nepali parents can get citizenship certificates as per the amendments brought in the Citizenship Act. He claimed that it is nothing but hypocrisy to call the Citizenship Bill anti-national.


“When KP Oli was the Prime Minister, the Citizenship Bill was introduced as an ordinance. Now when this bill is presented to the parliament, they are calling it anti-national. Nothing can be more dishonest and immoral than this,” he said.


Dahal arrived in Chitwan on Wednesday morning to lay the foundation stones of road and bridge construction projects in various parts of his constituency in Chitwan-3.
