Kathmandu, July 28

The Parliamentary Hearing Special Committee today concluded hearing on the nomination of Supreme Court justices but postponed the decision to endorse or reject the nominees till Sunday.

PHSC Chair Kul Bahadur Gurung said the panel decided to postpone the process till Sunday morning, as the panel members demanded time to discuss all the nominees.

“Some members of the panel were in favour of taking a decision today but others said it was a hectic hearing today and they needed another meeting to complete the process,” panel member and CPN-MC lawmaker Anita Pariyar told reporters.

“I was not a member of any political party and when I was offered the chance to become a lawmaker, I took it as an opportunity and that should not make me ineligible to become a Supreme Court justice,” she added.

She claimed that she would perform her duty impartially.
