The supreme court of Nepal refused to give interim order on the writ petitions including the one related to the oath of prime minister KP Sharma Oli.
However the single bench of chief justice Cholendra Shamsher JBR ordered to give first priority to the writ.
Earlier to this on 31 Baisakh, Prime minister Oli had refused to spell the word 'take oath' while taking oath of the post of the prime minister. Writ Petitioners had then got 4 different writ petitions registered in the supreme court against prime minister Oli and the office of the President of Nepal.
In the context of the prime minister's oath, the petitioners had claimed that the prime minister's act of not repeating or refusing to repeat the word 'take oath' deserved to get void as it was unconstitutional to do so. In the mid of taking oath, Mr. Oli had directly rejected to spell 'take oath' saying 'tyo pardaina' when the president had repeated it the second time.
Similarly, prime minister Oli had immediately appointed 7 ministers who were not members of any House. The petitioners had claimed that appointing as minister to a non-MP repeating for the second time was against the existing constitutional and legal provisions. Therefore, they had demanded that the 7 ministers, including home minister Ram Bahadur Thapa, were to be dismissed from their posts.
