SC orders Kathmandu Valley Development Authority chief Stahapit reinstated

The Supreme Court on Monday revoked the government's decision to sack Keshav Sthapit as the head of the Kathmandu Valley Development Authority.

The court issued the stay order in response to the former Kathmandu Mayor's writ in which he claimed he was removed illegally. A Cabinet meeting on January 17 had decided to relieve Sthapit of the post citing his failure to carry out his duties satisfactorily. nepalnews.com
