KATHMANDU: Experts have claimed that the new bill tabled at the House of Representatives aimed at barring civil servants from sharing their views on social media would infringe their right to expression, a report in The Kathmandu Post said.
The Federal Civil Service Bill proposes strict provisions for civil servants and that they will remain in effect even after their retirement.
The new bill does not allow public officials to criticize the government nor can they publish news about government businesses once the act comes into force, said the report.
