Nepal's K P Oli-led government on Thursday succeeded in pushing through five ordinances in the National Assembly with the support of Madheshi parties who did not want the land-related enactment.
With a majority, the National Assembly endorsed the five ordinances -- related to good governance, financial procedure, privatisation, investment promotion and cooperatives -- that were cleared by the House of Representatives on Wednesday.
The five ordinances could not have been passed in the upper house without the support of the two Madhes-based parties, Janata Samajwadi Party Nepal and Loktantrik Samajwadi Party.
