Art. 203 · Part 15

Provincial Bill Authentication

प्रदेश विधेयक प्रमाणीकरण
Original Text

After a Bill is passed by the Provincial Assembly, the Speaker presents it to the Provincial Chief. The Provincial Chief shall authenticate it within 15 days.

💡 Plain Language Explanation

The final step in making a provincial law: the Speaker sends the passed bill to the Governor, who signs it into law within 15 days. The Governor can return it once with suggestions, but if the assembly passes it again, the Governor must sign — no second refusal. Once authenticated, it\'s published in the provincial gazette and becomes enforceable law.

🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या

प्रदेश सभाले पारित गरेपछि प्रदेश प्रमुखले १५ दिनभित्र प्रमाणीकरण गर्नुपर्छ। फिर्ता पठाउन सकिन्छ तर दोस्रो पटक साइन गर्नैपर्छ।

✅ Strengths

Defined 15-day timeline and limited gubernatorial power keep legislation moving.

⚠️ Concerns

No meaningful executive veto means no check against poorly drafted provincial legislation.
