DANG, March 10: Energy Minister Post Bahadur Bogati on Saturday defended the agreement reached with China Three Gorges Corporation (CTGC) for the construction of 750 MW West Seti Project saying that the agreement is not against existing laws.



Bogati made such a remark a day after the Parliament´s Committee on Natural Resources and Means directed the ministry to stop all work related to the project until the committee issued another directive.



“The agreement with CTGC is not against existing laws,” said Bogati at a press meet in Ghorahi, Dang on Saturday afternoon. He said the parliamentary committee might have issued such a directive as it has not studied the agreement in detail.
