Hearing on writ against CJ-led govt deferred again

Hearing on a writ petition filed in the Supreme Court challenging the proposal of the four major parties to form a government headed by Chief Justice Khil Raj Regmi was postponed for a second time on Friday.

The hearing, which was scheduled to start from today, has been postponed to Sunday due to time constraint, SC spokesperson Hemanta Rawal said.

Bharat Jangham in his writ has argued that the government under the sitting Chief Justice is unconstitutional, demanding court order for a government headed by an independent person or a former Chief Justice. Nepalnews.com
