10 years work experience mandatory to contest for National Council

NC-10 years work experience mandatory to contest for National Council. Anyone aspiring to contest in the next National Council elections must now have a minimum work experience of 10 years. This was decided by the National Council today while discussing the National Council Amendment Bill 2014.

The member of the National Council’s legislative committee, Karma Yezer Raydi, who put forth the proposal, said the requirement was felt necessary as the National Council is an important institution with its foremost responsibility to review the government and issues of national interest.

After a lengthy discussion, the Chairperson settled on deciding the matter through a show of hands. Of the 24 members present in the house, 16 supported the move.
