The newly appointed justices of the Supreme Court took the oath of office and secrecy on Wednesday.
Chief Justice Bishwambhar Prasad Shrestha administered the oath to six new justices–Saranga Subedi, Abdul Aziz Musalman, Mahesh Sharma Paudyal, Tek Prasad Dhungana, Sunil Pokharel and Bal Krishna Dhakal–at the Sheetal Niwas in the presence of President Ramchandra Paudel.
On November 20, a meeting of the Judicial Council had recommended the six candidates for the post of Supreme Court justices.
Although the Parliamentary Hearing Committee had completed the hearing of the nominees on Monday, the House panel endorsed them only on Wednesday.
