Summons sleeved against removal of Khanal’s candidacy
A writ has been filed at the Supreme Court (SC) against withdrawal of the motion to elect UML chairman Jhala Nath Khanal to the post of Prime Minister at the legislature parliament.
Advocates Kumar Acharya and Bhabishwar Gurung, who is also a member of UML legal department, filed a joint petition claiming the withdrawal of the motion is illegal as such provision is not mentioned anywhere in the parliamentary regulations.
“Firstly, incumbent Prime Minister cannot become a proposer for the post of PM,” mentions the writ. “Secondly, the proposal cannot be withdrawn once registered.”
The petitioners have accused caretaker PM Madhav Kumar Nepal, who is the proposer of the motion to elect Khanal as the PM, of withdrawing the proposal with an intention to prolong his duration in office.
They have demanded the previous two elections be cancelled and Khanal’s candidacy be retained at the elections slated for August 2.
Sources say, UML leader Bam Dev Gautam had lawyers close to him file the writ petition against the withdrawal of the motion.
