The Nepali cabinet has reinstated the provision for federal lawmakers to appoint personal secretaries, reversing a previous policy. This decision undoes a measure implemented during the tenure of former Chief Justice Sushila Karki, following the Gen Z movement. The earlier policy had removed the right of lawmakers to have personally appointed secretaries. The restoration is likely intended to provide greater support to parliamentarians in their duties. Details surrounding the precise number of allowed appointments and associated budgetary implications remain unclear. The change signals a shift in approach towards lawmaker assistance within the Nepali government. It’s anticipated to streamline operations for elected officials.
