Art. 236 · Part 20

Federal Oversight

संघीय निगरानी
Original Text

The Federal Government may issue necessary directives to Provincial and Local Governments on matters of national importance, disaster management, and constitutional compliance.

💡 Plain Language Explanation

The federal government retains a supervisory role — it can issue directives to provinces and local governments on national security, disaster response, and constitutional compliance. If a province passes a law violating the Constitution, the federal government can intervene. This is the federation\'s safety valve — decentralization with guardrails.

🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या

संघीय सरकारले राष्ट्रिय महत्त्वका विषयमा प्रदेश र स्थानीय तहलाई निर्देशन दिन सक्छ।

✅ Strengths

Ensures national standards are maintained even with decentralized governance.

⚠️ Concerns

\'National importance\' is vaguely defined — the federal government can use it to override provincial autonomy.
