Yogendra Kunwar, president of the Nepal Trade Union Congress, has stated that the government is incapable of revoking trade union rights. Kunwar emphasized that any attempt to do so out of misunderstanding would be unfeasible in practice. He warned that if the government tries to annul these rights, it should be prepared to face international court proceedings. Additionally, he urged the government to focus on establishing a National Labour Commission.
