Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Development Kamal Thapa has expressed his displeasure over the impeachment motion registered against Chief Justice Sushila Karki.
In a twitter post right after the registration of impeachment motion, Thapa remarked that the impeachment motion registered by lawmakers of Nepali Congress (NC) and CPN (Maoist Centre) was objectionable and unfortunate. “It’s a serious attack on judicial independence,” he wrote on the micro-blogging site.
NC lawmaker Min Bishwokarma and CPN (Maoist Centre) chief whip Tek Bahadur Basnet, among other lawmakers, went to the Parliament Secretariat and registered the motion this afternoon. A total of 249 lawmakers from the ruling NC and CPN (Maoist Centre) have signed the motion.
