The Federal Parliament meeting is set to take place today, with lawmakers preparing to introduce key bills related to forensic science, tourism, and film regulation.

The House of Representatives will convene at 1:00 PM at Singha Durbar, according to the official schedule. Among the major items on the agenda is the National Forensic Science Laboratory (Establishment and Operation) Bill, 2081. The proposed law aims to strengthen Nepal’s scientific investigation system, addressing long-standing gaps in criminal justice and evidence handling.

During the Federal Parliament meeting, lawmakers are also expected to present the Tourism Bill, 2081. The legislation seeks to improve regulatory standards and promote sustainable growth in Nepal’s tourism sector, which remains a crucial pillar of the national economy.

Another significant proposal is the Film Bill, 2081, aimed at reforming Nepal’s film industry. The bill is expected to introduce clearer guidelines for production, distribution, and content regulation, while also encouraging the growth of domestic cinema and creative industries.

The parliament session comes as Nepal moves to modernize its legal and institutional frameworks across multiple sectors. These legislative efforts reflect a broader push to strengthen governance and align policies with evolving national needs.

The outcomes of today’s Federal Parliament meeting could influence key sectors and shape Nepal’s policy direction in the coming months.
