According to the information received: On 20 April 2020, the President issued Ordinance 1 (of Nepali year 2077) aimed at restructuring the Constitutional Council. The Ordinance attracted a good deal of political and public opposition and was rolled back on 24 April 2020. On 15 December 2020, the President of Nepal issued Ordinance 10 (of Nepali year 2077) to amend the Constitutional Council (Functions, Duties, Powers and Procedures) Act, 2010, allowing the Council to hold its meetings without fulfillment of the quorum and to take decisions based on simple majority.

A contemporary pathway towards an authentic constitutional order Constitucionalismo Sul-Asiático? Um caminho contemporâneo rumo a uma autêntica ordem constitucional Pasquale Viola1 Charles University (CUNI/Czech Republic) [email protected] Resumo Estudos de direito constitucional têm se concentrado predominantemente em experiências jurídicas que abrangem apenas parte do fenômeno do constitucionalismo, apesar de um crescente interesse nos sistemas jurídicos asiáticos, já não considerados “irmãs mais jovens” ou meras “cópias de carbono” de Lei ocidental. Este ensaio introduz a configuração federal, conforme previsto pela Constituição indiana, enfatizando alguns aspectos relevantes da Constituição indiana que parecem necessários para entender a organização territorial do poder, ou seja, o sistema de governo e do judiciário. A terceira parte trata da principal história política que influenciou o sistema jurídico nepalês e sua evolução contemporânea. A conclusão explica por que o constitucionalismo sul-asiático e seus vibrantes sistemas jurídicos oferecem, agora, instrumentos necessários para a construção da teoria jurídica geral y para gestão de conflitos sociais.

  • Appointment of Judges and Their Independence
    SPOTLIGHT ON PROCESS OF SELECTION AND APPOINTMENT OF JUDGES IN NEPAL INTRODUCTION Courts in Nepal can be broadly classified in to two categories: 1. Regular Courts as provided in the constitution and 2. Special Courts as provided in the special legislations enacted by Parliament. The selection, appointment and promotion policy guidelines for the judges of regular courts are broadly mentioned in the Interim Constitution 2063 (hereinafter called constitution) itself. The laws such as Judicial Council Act 2047 B.S. and Judicial Council (procedure) Regulation 2056 B.S. further elaborate and strengthen the constitutional policies on judicial appointments. In contrast to the selection, appointment and promotion of the judges in regular courts, the parent legislation of the Special Courts and Tribunals provide its own selection and appointment policy for judges of the special courts. The review of the special legislations establishing special courts reveal that the approach of the government and the Parliament has been to bypass the regular courts in special disputes and establish executive as the deciding authority in appointing process. The regular courts are very important institutions for dispute settlement and enforcement of the rule of law in Nepal. They consist of three tier courts, namely, District Court, Appellate Court and Supreme Court. Along with these regular courts, there exist Military Court, Special Court, Labor Court, Administrative Court, Debt Recovery Tribunal and Revenue Tribunal as special courts. Level of Judges Appointing Authority Pool District Judges Judicial Council Qualified Gazetted Officers from Judicial Service (Interim constitution has made a provision for recruitment of district judges from the members of the bar through open competition exam.
