Kathmandu, January 14
A trade union leader close to Netra Bikram Chand ‘Biplav’-led Communist Party of Nepal has filed a writ petition at the Supreme Court demanding an order against the implementation of new Civil Servant Adjustment Ordinance.
Amar Singh Oli in his writ has claimed that the ordinance is discriminatory. He argues that the new law favours higher level officials over lower ones, and stops career growth of some particular groups.
Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers among others has been named defendant in the case.
According to the court sources, the preliminary hearing will be held on Tuesday morning.
Few other associations of the staff have also moved the court against the new law.
