Kathmandu, June 1 (RSS): Hearing on the writ petitions filed against the dissolution of the House of Representatives at the Supreme Court would be conducted on June 6.
The date was fixed to conduct the hearing by forming a new constitutional bench after a dispute surfaced regarding its formation.
Earlier, Chief Justice Cholendra Shumsher JB Rana, senior-most justice Deepak Kumar Karki and justices—Dr. Ananda Mohan Bhattarai, Tej Bahadur KC, and Bam Kumar Shrestha were on the constitutional bench.
Chief Justice Rana from the bench said, “Now, the constitutional bench will be formed by determining the justices on the bench on the basis of seniority.”
Though the hearing over the writ petitions filed against the dissolution of HoR was started on Friday, it had not moved ahead focusing on the issue following the row over the formation of the bench.
Saying justice KC was involved in the hearing over the writ petition against HoR dissolution in the recent period and justice Shrestha had made verdict over the name of Nepal Communist Party, law practitioners of writ petitioners had argued that they could not sit on the bench
