Parliament dissolution a political issue, SC should dismiss case: Nepal PM

Calling the Nepal government's move to dissolve the lower house of the Parliament to be a 'political move', Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli said the Supreme Court should dismiss the case.

Oli's comments come as the move, which has been claimed to be unconstitutional by members of the ruling party and the opposition, is being challenged in the apex court, where hearings are currently underway.

A total of 13 petitions are filed in the Supreme Court of Nepal, challenging the decision of Oli and President Bidhya Devi Bhandari to dissolve the House of Representatives, the lower house parliament, claiming it unconstitutional.

The apex court has yet to give a verdict on the writ petitions.

Following the dissolution of the Lower House and the announcement of midterm elections, the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) witnessed its vertical split as the already-strained ties between the two rival factions of the party have further deepened.

The Oli-led faction of the ruling party is backing the dissolution of the House while the other faction led by Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Madhav Kumar Nepal is firmly opposing the government's move and demanding the restoration of parliament.

House Passes Stopgap Funding Bill to Avert Shutdown; Senate Vote & Biden’s Approval Next

The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions. #GovernmentShutdown #StopgapFunding #HouseVote #DisasterRelief #FarmAid #DebtLimit #SenateApproval #PresidentBiden #RepublicanLeadership #TrumpOpposition #Oneindia #OneindiaNews Also Read Government Shutdown: What It Means for Federal Employees and Social Security Payments :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/government-shutdown-impacts-on-federal-employees-011-4021087.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's New Demands Result in Collapse of Bipartisan Government Funding Plan Ahead of Deadline :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/government-funding-plan-collapses-trump-demands-011-4020029.html?ref=DMDesc US Congress Approves Temporary Funding Bill to Prevent Government Shutdown Until December :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-congress-passes-temporary-funding-bill-avoid-shutdown-011-3945067.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~PR.362~GR.125~

Trump Rejects Bipartisan Deal, Pushes Dangerous New Proposal: Govt. Shutdown Days Before Christmas?

As the deadline to prevent a government shutdown rapidly approaches, former President Donald Trump has dismissed a bipartisan agreement between Republicans and Democrats. Trump pushed for a controversial new deal that includes a three-month government funding extension and a two-year suspension of the debt ceiling, a proposal that was swiftly rejected by the House of Representatives. With crucial public services and federal workers at risk, Congress must act fast to avoid a shutdown.
