The Supreme Court has refused to issue an interim order on the writ petition filed by Hitendra Dev Shakya, who was removed as the Executive Director of the Nepal Electricity Authority.
A bench of Justices Abdul Aziz Musalman and Nripadhwaj Niraula refused to issue an interim order after arguments from both sides on Shakya's writ petition, which claimed that the decision to remove him was illegal.
The Supreme Court has given priority to the case and ordered that it be heard on November 9. Earlier, an order was issued to expedite the hearing of the case, saying that there was no interim order in a similar petition and that it was pending in the Supreme Court. Now, the Supreme Court will hear the case filed by Kulman Ghising along with it. It had refused to issue an interim order in that case too and had issued priority.
The then Energy Minister Deepak Khadka had removed Ghising and made Shakya the executive director. This time, after Ghising became a minister, Shakya was removed and Manoj Silwal was made the executive director.
