KATHMANDU: The Supreme Court (SC) is hearing the writ petition lodged against the dissolution of Land Commission today.
The writ petition was filed on Sunday by legal practitioner Mahesh Bhattarai on behalf of Chairperson of the dissolved Commission making Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers and Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba as defendants.
The writ petition has sought the SC’s order not to implement the cabinet decision taken on August 3, arguing that the decision has pushed the constitutional rights of the landless, squatters and Dalits towards uncertainty.
Four different writ petitions have already been filed over this issue.
