CM Shahi fires Chief Whip Shah for bringing no-confidence motion



SURKHET: Karnali Province Chief Minister and Province Assembly Parliamentary Party leader of the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Mahendra Bahadur Shahi has sacked the party’s Chief Whip Gulaph Jung Shah.

CM Shahi fired Shah from the post on Monday after a no-confidence motion was registered against him.

“I have relieved you of the responsibility of Chief Whip as your work has not been satisfactory,” said a letter signed by CM Shahi.

Similarly, CM Shahi has appointed former Whip Sita Kumari Nepali as Chief Whip.

As many as 18 members of the Karnali Provincial Assembly representing the ruling party had registered a no-confidence motion against CM Shahi on Sunday.

Members, including Deputy Speaker Pushpa Gharti Magar, Yam Lal Kandel, and NCP Chief Whip Shah, had registered the no-confidence motion against Shahi.
