Court verdict raises serious moral question for President Bhandari

As Supreme Court restores House, it says Head of State’s actions are subject to judicial review and that it is the judiciary’s responsibility to correct any unconstitutional moves.

In its written clarification presented to the Supreme Court on June 17 on the dissolution of the House of Representatives and the announcement of midterm elections in November, the Office of the President had argued that the President’s decisions cannot be subject to judicial review.
