Surkhet, Jan 10: Chief Minister of Karnali Province, Yamlal Kandel, has stressed the need of recongising and implementing the citizens’ Right to Information.
During an interaction with spokespersons and information officers for province ministers and local levels held in Birendranagar of Surkhet today, the Chief Minister urged authorities concerned to respect the citizens’ right to information guaranteed by the Constitution.
