Lawmakers have repeatedly called for Prime Minister Balen Shah to appear in Parliament to address various concerns, including the government's handling of arrests, disaster response, and controversial border remarks. MP Dhruba Raj Rai criticized the government's approach as "childish" and lacking seriousness in disaster aftermath, while MP Ambikadevi Sangraula demanded the removal of the Prime Minister's border statements from official records. Parliamentarians also questioned the PM's post-UN assembly briefing and discussed disaster funding and trade issues.

Prime Minister Balen Shah's engagement at the 81st UN General Assembly successfully elevated the Himalayan climate crisis and Nepal's demand for climate justice onto the global stage, including the proposal of a Himalayan Climate Resilience Mechanism. He emphasized Nepal's disproportionate suffering from climate change despite low emissions and called for greater financial support from high-emitting nations. Following the assembly, Foreign Minister Shishir Khanal noted international willingness to aid in post-flood reconstruction and climate action, with Nepal characterizing the Bhotekoshi flood as a 'Himalayan Tsunami' to underscore regional climate risks.
