Kathmandu. The Supreme Court has issued a show-cause order hearing a writ petition against the 10-point agreement between the government and Jenji.

A single bench of Justice Tek Prasad Dhungana issued a show-cause order in the name of the defendants on Friday. Advocate Prem Raj Silwal and advocate Sudip Bhandari had filed two separate writ petitions on behalf of the writ petitioner. The petition had named the Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers and Prime Minister Sushila Karki as defendants.

Defendants will now have to submit a written response through the attorney general’s office within 15 days.

The petitioners have argued that the incumbent government has no right to sign political and structural agreements that have long-term and long-term implications.
