KATHMANDU, NOV 13 - A writ petition has been filed at the Supreme Court today demanding dismissal of the government decision to operate the Armed Police Force under Regional Administrators.
In the writ, 19 petitioners including lawyer Jagannath Mahato have requested the Court to issue an order in the name of Home Ministry to withdraw its June 14 decision to delegate powers to operate the APF under Regional Administrators.
The petitioners claimed that the APF running through separate Act could not be put under the civilian authority by a ministry-level decision.Posted on: 2003-11-12 08:26
