Art. 175 · Part 14
Sessions of Provincial Assembly
प्रदेश सभाको अधिवेशन
Original Text
The Provincial Chief summons sessions of the Provincial Assembly. The Assembly must meet at least twice a year. One-fourth of members can request a special session.
💡 Plain Language Explanation
Provincial assemblies must meet at least twice a year — no Chief Minister can avoid their assembly indefinitely. The Governor formally summons sessions, but one-quarter of assembly members can force a special session. This mirrors the federal rule and ensures the CM faces regular legislative scrutiny.
🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या
वर्षमा कम्तीमा दुई पटक प्रदेश सभा बस्नुपर्छ। एक चौथाइ सदस्यले विशेष अधिवेशन माग गर्न सक्छन्।
✅ Strengths
Minimum session requirement prevents executive avoidance of legislative oversight.
⚠️ Concerns
Quality of sessions matters more than quantity — many sessions are poorly attended.
