Kathmandu, Jan 16: Supreme Court Bar Association and High-Court Bar Association have said that attention was drawn seriously towards the appointment of 80 judges at high-courts.
Issuing separate press releases on Sunday, both Bar Associations expressed dissatisfaction over the appointment of the judges, arguing it neglected the contribution in legal sector and constitutional provisions.
The criteria set by the law and seniority was violated in course of appointing the judges; they were appointed by the meeting held in absence of two members, out of five, of Judicial Council.
Although the Nepal Bar Association has been demanding 50 per cent appointment of judges from among the legal practitioners in course of appointment of judges at high courts, the recent decision of the Judicial Council was unfortunate.
Nepal Bar Association has been protesting the appointment saying it was not inclusive and proportional. RSS
