The largest party in the Legislature-Parliament, Nepali Congress, has decided not to obstruct the execution of the impeachment motion against Chief of the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) Lokman Singh Karki.

The central committee meeting of the party held today concluded that the impeachment motion should be moved ahead as per the House rule and procedures.

Stating that a motion of impeachment against the CIAA Chief was moved to the House as per the constitution, the meeting thus decided not to interfere in its execution.

The meeting chaired by party President Sher Bahadur Deuba reached to a conclusion that the Impeachment Recommendation Committee should be allowed to look into the motion freely, according to party Spokesperson Dilendra Prasad Badu.

Prior to this, most of the members speaking in the meeting had expressed suspicion over the impeachment motion that the CPN (Maoist Centre), the party that is leading the government, together with the main opposition party, the CPN (UML), has registered in the parliament, without informing the ruling coalition partner.

They stressed that the party should take an appropriate decision on the matter only after making a deep study on the background of the impeachment motion.

Only youth leaders Bishwa Prakash Sharma, Gagan Thapa, Surendra Pandey, Dhanraj Gurung, Pradip Poudel and Badri Pandey have so far openly expressed their views that the party should decide in favour of the impeachment motion.
