Moreover, he said that President Bidya Devi Bhandari should not have delayed in authenticating the Citizenship Bill endorsed by the Federal Parliament. " I am hopeful that President will not block the Bill," Prachanda said.

“I said it in an interaction with journalists yesterday in Japan as well. There should have been no delay in certifying the bill from the President,” he said.
