Writ petition challenges Cabinet decision. Ghising fails to meet 2nd clarification deadline.

The Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) board of directors has finally decided to restore power to several industrial firms that have defaulted on electricity bills. The decision was made in a meeting on Tuesday, following a Cabinet instruction on Sunday to resume power supply, which was cut off on October 24 over longstanding unpaid bills.
