The Nepali Congress's legitimacy dispute has been scheduled for hearing in the bench of Justices Sharanga Subedi and Nripadhwaj Niraula. The two petitions filed by outgoing President Sher Bahadur Deuba have been scheduled for hearing in the first place.

The two petitions filed by Deuba are being heard.

On 26 Chaitra, the Sher Bahadur Deuba faction had filed a supplementary petition demanding to stop the agenda of the regular general convention. The Deuba faction had demanded that the previously registered writ should also be considered together. The Supreme Court had called both parties for discussion on 27 Chaitra, saying that an interim order would not be issued unilaterally.

A writ was filed on 4 Magh 2082 against the decision to grant the party's legitimacy to Gagan Thapa. The latest writ has demanded that the new agenda of the 15th general convention not be implemented until the dispute regarding the party's legitimacy is resolved.

After the party of President Gagan Thapa started preparing for the general convention, the Deuba party demanded that it be stopped. 

In the previous writ petition, the then general secretaries Gagan Thapa and Bishwaprakash Sharma had claimed that the leadership was elected unconstitutionally by holding a special general convention despite the disagreement of President Deuba, and demanded that the new working committee should not be recognized  and that the decision of the Election Commission be nullified. However, the Supreme Court refused to issue an interim order and called only for discussion.

On 6th Magh, a bench of Justice Sunil Kumar Pokharel had issued a show cause order and granted priority. Then, the presentation scheduled for 1 Chaitra was postponed as it could not be seen, and then it was postponed by the court itself on 22 Chaitra.
