RUPANDEHI: Home Minister Bal Krishna Khand underscored the need for adherence to the Constitution to maintain good governance in the nation.
Speaking at a program in Butwal, Khand said good governance would be promoted in society only if the provisions of the constitution are abided to.
He also stated that the authority who should abide by the Constitution violated it.
“It is unfortunate that thousands of Nepalis are in a state of statelessness,” he said.

Good governance cannot be there without adherence to the constitution, he said.
