KATHMANDU: Lawmakers of ruling Nepali Congress and CPN Maoist Centre on Sunday afternoon registered an impeachment motion against Supreme Court’s Chief Justice Sushila Karki at the Parliament Secretariat, accusing her of interfering with the executive including in the appointment of Nepal Police’s chief, breaching the principles of separation of power, influencing her fellow Justices and failing to fulfill her duties in judiciary efficiently.

Nepali Congress lawmaker Min Bahadur Bishwakarma is the proposer and Maoist lawmaker Tek Bahadur Basnet the seconder of the motion. It is said that a total of 251 lawmakers have signed the motion.

Bishwakarma and Basnet have made a slew of allegations against Karki to justify why the impeachment motion was moved against her.

One fourth of the total number of Members of Parliament can challenge any the Justice of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court with a motion of impeachment at the Parliament “on the ground of his or her failure to fulfil his or her duties of office because of serious violation of this Constitution and law, incompetence or misconduct or failure to discharge the duties of office honestly or serious violation of the code of conduct”, according to the Article 101.2 of Nepal’s Constitution.

They claimed that the SC verdict that Karki made against the promotion of Nepal Police’s Inspector General interefered with the Cabinet’s executive right granted by the Constitution’s Article 75 by referring to a non-existing provision in the Rule 41 of Nepal Police Regulation. They charged that Karki manipulated the facts –by swiping two DIGs’s work performance evaluation scores — and resorted to falsity while issuing the verdict
