The government has decided to recommend Hari Shankar Mishra for the post of provincial chief of Province 2.
A Cabinet meeting on Monday decided to remove Rajesh Jha from the post and recommend Mishra, a former lawmaker and central member of Nepali Congress.
Mishra was elected to the House of Representatives in 1991/92. He is the son of Ram Narayan Mishra, who had served as the industry and commerce minister in the country’s first elected government under BP Koirala in 1959.
The Sher Bahadur Deuba administration decided to recommend him to the post of provincial chief to commemorate his family’s contributions to nation-building.
