‘Federal Civil Service Act to be formulated to end administrative sector anomalies’



KATHMANDU: Minister for Federal Affairs and General Administration Amanlal Modi said the Federal Civil Service Act would be formulated in a way to end anomalies propping up in the administrative sector of Nepal.

At a discussion program with constitutional bodies’ chiefs on preparation of the bill and structural arrangement regarding reservation on Saturday, Minister Modi viewed wrong tendency prevailing in the staff transfer system across the country should be eliminated.

“We would manage the existing transfer system wherein accessible people continue to remain in convenient place and voiceless staffs frequently get transfers to far-flung areas”, the minister asserted.

Provision would be meticulously enshrined in the act to institutionalize proportional inclusiveness within the principles of the Constitution, he further noted.

The minister expressed his confidence that half of the problems surfaced in the inter-governmental administration would be resolved with the adoption of the act.

On the occasion, various constitutional bodies’ chiefs highlighted the need of formulating the law in a way to promote national unity keeping the country needs and the constitution-adopted proportional inclusion.

Among the matters discussed at the programme include laying emphasis on positive discrimination for keeping inclusiveness in the country, properly identifying disadvantaged groups and distributing identity cards and making arrangement of reservation for women, Madhesi, Dalit, indigenous nationalities and people with disabilities.

The Civil Service Act had to be adopted during earlier tenure of the parliament. But, it was returned to the parliament in lack of consensus among the political parties.

According to the Article 51 (C) and Article 232 of the Constitution, Staff Adjustment Act, 2075 and Local Government Operation Act, 2074 BS, the province and local levels should take basic principles and assumptions of the federal civil service law as basis while formulating laws on service operations.

There is no situation that the province and local laws related to service operation would not be formulated without the federal civil service act.
