Kathmandu, July 17

The Supreme Court on Monday ordered the government to reinstate sacked chairperson of Film Development Board, Nikita Poudel.

Earlier, the government had decided to sack all officials appointed politically by the Sher Bahadur Deuba-led government after August 30 last year citing the appointments violated the election code of conduct.

But, dissatisfied Poudel had filed a writ at the apex court demanding her reinstatement. Responding to the writ, the court issued an interim order that she be given back the job till the final verdict.

Poudel told Onlinekhar that she had already joined back the office and would attend a function to be organised to mark the launch of ‘box office system’.
