  • Nepal: All Eyes on New Team
    NEPAL: ALL EYES ON NEW TEAM Informal Sector Service Centre (INSEC)1 1. INTRODUCTION The election of the Second Constituent Assembly (CA) paved the way for formation of a representative government. The country got a new and elected government in January 2014, nineteen months after the former Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai resigned. The Interim Election Government as it was called was headed by the then sitting Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Khil Raj Regmi. His government completed the mandate and handed over the responsibility to the people’s government. The Common Program of the Government has mentioned that efforts shall be made to find consensus for promulgating new constitution, strengthening democracy and national interest by holding discussion with the political parties present at the CA and outside it. However the government’s effort is not fruitful in addressing the issues raised by political parties not present in the CA. As an important aspect of transitional justice, the Legislature passed the bill for formation of Truth and Reconciliation Commission despite criticism from national and international communities, saying the Bill is set to provide amnesty to perpetrators rather than punishing them and providing justice to victims. The verdict of the Supreme Court on 2 January 2015 ruled not to provide amnesty to persons involved in grave human rights violations and the Bill should be in line with the international principles of human rights. The trend of impunity continued as the human rights situation of the country did not improve for a long time. The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) remained without office bearers for 13 months from 16 September 2013 to 20 October 2014 as the government failed to appoint its commissioners for months.
