The Supreme Court is set to review its own decision to revive the Land Problems Resolution Commission.
On Thursday, a full bench of Justices Tek Prasad Dhungana, Bal Krishna Dhakal and Nripadhwaj Niraula decided to review the petition filed by the government. The government had filed a review petition claiming that the Supreme Court's decision on 15 Mangsir 2082 had hindered the resolution of the land and squatter problems.
On 23 Asoj 2082, the government had decided to abolish the then Slum Problems Resolution Commission and its district structure. After the ministry received a complaint that the commission had become a recruitment center for cadres and was involved in financial irregularities, the then Land Reforms Minister Anil Kumar Sinha had taken a proposal to abolish it to the Council of Ministers. Seven people, including the then chairman of the commission, Hari Prasad Rijal, had filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court against the government's decision.
On 15 Mangsir, a bench of Justices Sharanga Subedi and Shrikant Poudel had given a mandate to revive the commission. The government had filed a review petition after the decision required the commission to be reinstated and work.
The government had argued that the new mandate government was unable to work in the old format and assign responsibilities to the office bearers as per the RSP's pledge, the government's 100-point agenda, and the good governance roadmap, so a review was needed.
