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.

Merrick Garland Held in Contempt of Congress

Merrick Garland , Held in Contempt of Congress. The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives voted to hold the attorney general in contempt of Congress on June 12, BBC reports. The resolution was passed by a 216-207 vote. Only one Republican, David Joyce, voted in opposition. . As a former prosecutor, I cannot in good conscience support a resolution that would further politicize our judicial system to score political points, Rep. David Joyce, via statement. Garland is held in contempt of Congress for refusing to provide interview tapes with President Biden that were recorded during the Justice Department's classified document probe. . Following the contempt vote, Garland said House Republicans have "turned a serious congressional authority into a partisan weapon.". Today’s vote disregards the constitutional separation of powers, the Justice Department’s need to protect its investigations, and the substantial amount of information we have provided to the Committees. , Merrick Garland, via statement. Garland is now the third U.S. attorney general in American history to be held in contempt of Congress, BBC reports. . In an opinion piece published in the 'Washington Post' on June 11, Garland said that "the Justice Department is under attack like never before.". He pointed to a rise in "conspiracy theories, falsehoods, violence and threats of violence towards department officials by Republican critics.". The short-term political benefits of those tactics will never make up for the long-term cost to our country. , Merrick Garland, via the 'Washington Post'

In response to remarks made by Prime Minister Modi that were expunged from the Lower House proceedings, Rahul Gandhi, Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, criticised Modi's approach, stating "everything is expunged in PM Modi's world." Gandhi emphasised that while statements may be expunged in Modi's view, the truth cannot be erased in reality. He affirmed the validity of his own statements, asserting that they reflect the truth regardless of expungement efforts. Gandhi made these comments to reporters outside Parliament, highlighting ongoing tensions and differing perspectives within India's political landscape. #RahulGandhi #LokSabha #RahulGandhiShivaSpeech #RahulGandhiSpeechExpunged #RahulGandhiLSSpeech #RahulGandhiOnHindus #LSSpeechExpunged #ExpungedSpeech #CongressLeader #PMModi #TruthCannotBeExpunged #AwadheshPrasad #KSuresh #RahulGandhi #RahulGandhiHinduSpeech #RSS #HinduSpeech #LeaderOfOpposition #RahulGandhiManipur #ManipurViolence #ManipurIssueParliament #RahulGandhiAgniveerScheme #Agniveer #PMModi ~PR.152~ED.103~GR.121~HT.96~
