SC stays decision to Director General of Health Services Department


Feb 1, 2018-The Supreme Court on Thursday issued an interim order directing the government to not remove Dr Rajendra Pant from the post of Director General at the Department of Health Services.

A single bench of Justice Om Prakash Mishra issued the order to not implement its earlier decision to transfer Dr Pant to the Ministry of Health and appoint Dr Taranath Paudel as the Director General of the Department of Health Services. Earlier, Dr Pant had moved the SC arguing that the decision to remove him from the post of Director General was against the law.

Similarly, the SC also issued a show-cause notice to the government asking reasons for transferring Dr Pant to Ministry of Health and appointing Dr Paudel as new Director General at Department of Health Services. Health Minister Deepak Bohara had made a controversial decision to transfer Dr Pant.
