The chief secretary and secretaries have said 'Please remove the cooling period': President Khatiwada

What you should know

Chairman of the State Order and Good Governance Committee Ramhari Khatiwada has claimed that he did not make a mistake in the 'cooling off period' in the Federal Civil Service Bill. Chairman Khatiwada admitted that there was an error in the report, but claimed that there was no error in the inquiry paper before the special committee formed to study and investigate the error in the report of the Federal Civil Service Bill.

Chairman Khatiwada also said that special category and first category employees attended the discussion of the committee and said, 'This is the request, please remove this cooling period'. He said that the chief secretary, secretaries and special category employees are against the cooling off period provision even when the committee passes the report. "In the meeting of the committee on May 2, the word 'resignation' was added and the cooling period system was passed," he said.

Although the report was ready to be signed on 6th of May, it was stopped after receiving a call from Education Minister Raghuji Pant, Chairman Khatiwada says. However, he did not say anything about who the phone belongs to. In an informal meeting on June 6, Hon'ble Minister Raghuji Pant, Hon'ble Federal Affairs and General Administration Minister Rajkumar Gupta, Hon'ble Leelanath Shrestha and Hon'ble Dilendra Badu also sat. At that time, honorable Raghuji Pantko received a call and then that day it was stopped without signature,' he said .

In the report submitted by the sub-committee from the state arrangement committee, instead of one year, the cooling off period provision was passed by adding 2 years. He says that he is still in favor of the cooling period. She says, 'The law and the relevant ministry should also look at the responsibility of writing the amended things and the effect of adding a clause on which clause will be affected. The reason for keeping both civil and government employees in the cooling off period is to include all those who have taken the benefits of the government. Not that there aren't mistakes, of course, but not from me . I am in favor of keeping the cooling off period from the beginning till today, I am also in favor of the National Assembly bringing a provision to keep it.'

This is Ramhari Khatiwada's statement. We gave the responsibility to the sub-committee for weekly discussions. There was a wide discussion about why the cooling off period should be kept, and it was felt necessary to stop the practice of appointment after retirement by influencing the political person who bargains for personal benefits with the political leadership.

The special category and first category employees attended the discussion meeting of the committee and said, "This is the request to remove this cooling period." The last meeting was the day when the committee passed the report. In the meeting of the committee on 2nd of June, the word "resignation" was added and the provision of the cooling period was passed. Hon'ble Minister Raghuji Pant, Hon'ble Federal Affairs and General Administration Minister Raj Kumar Gupta, Hon'ble Leelanath Shrestha and Hon'ble Dilendra Badu also sat in the informal meeting on 6th June. At that time a call came to Hon'ble Raghuji Pantko and then that day the situation was stopped without signature.

In the report submitted by the sub-committee from the state system committee, instead of one year, cooling off period has been passed by adding 2 years. The law and the relevant ministry also have to look at the responsibility of writing the amended contents and its effect after adding a clause to which clause will be affected. The reason for keeping both civil and government employees in the cooling off period is to include all those who have taken the benefits of the government. Not that there aren't mistakes, of course, but not from me . I am in favor of keeping the cooling off period from the beginning till today, I am also in favor of the National Assembly bringing a provision to keep it.
