The Constitutional Bench of the Supreme Court has issued a show cause order on the writ petition filed by the UML against the dissolution of the House of Representatives.

A five-judge bench including Chief Justice Prakash Man Singh Raut ordered the submission of a written response within 7 days on Wednesday. Similarly, the constitutional bench has also ordered that the writ petitions against the dissolution of the House of Representatives, which were previously registered and under consideration, be kept with them.

Although the UML sought an interim order in the writ petition, the Supreme Court did not issue one.

The then parliamentary party chief whip Mahesh Bartaula and whip Sunita Baral had filed a writ petition on behalf of the UML, saying that the House of Representatives should be restored. President Ram Chandra Poudel dissolved the House of Representatives on 27 Bhadra on the recommendation of Prime Minister Sushila Karki.
