The organisation also sought for the concrete proof of the two athletics coaches Sushil Narsingha Rana and Narayan Pradhan who were suspended following the Rajendra Bhandari doping scandal alleging for being involved in the case. The NRSO also asked to make the procedures of promotion and transfer of employees transparent. NSC had recently promoted 201 employees.

The NSC member secretary Jeevan Ram Shrestha said they have orally come to an understanding. “We will finalise it in papers on Monday,” said Shrestha adding the issue of promotion was the main demand which was sorted out. “There is already a legal provision to protest against the promotion,” he said.
