Nepal PM Oli In No Mood To Resign; Team Grumbles At SC Verdict As Political Rivals Circle
Nepal PM KP Sharma Oli will not resign immediately & implement the Supreme Court s verdict against him by facing Parliament that is due to convene in 2 weeks
Nepal Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli will not resign immediately and implement the Supreme Court s verdict against him by facing Parliament that is due to convene within two weeks, an official representing the PM said on Wednesday. The Supreme Court s verdict is controversial, however, it should be accepted and implemented. Its effects will be seen in the future as the decision has not provided any solution to the political problems, Oli s Press Advisor Surya Thapa said.
Story highlights The Prime Minister will face the House of Representatives to implement the verdict but will not tender his resignation as of now, Thapa was quoted as saying by The Himalayan Times.
Nepal s embattled Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli will not resign but face a floor test in parliament instead, an associate said on Wednesday, a day after the Supreme Court rejected his decision to dissolve the legislature and call early elections.
In a landmark ruling, a five-member constitutional bench led by Chief Justice Cholendra Shumsher on Tuesday annulled the Oli government s unconstitutional decision to dissolve the 275-member lower house of Parliament. The court also ordered the government to summon the House session within the next 13 days.
