KATHMANDU, July 29: The Parliamentary Hearing Committee  (PHC) has postponed its meeting, originally scheduled for 11 AM today.

The committee was set to discuss the proposed appointment of Krishna Man Pradhan as an election commissioner. However, due to ongoing internal discussions among the parties, the meeting has been rescheduled for 5 PM, according to Padma Prasad Pandey, secretary general of the Parliament Secretariat.

There is considerable pressure on Pradhan regarding a case involving sexual exploitation, with many calling for a thorough review before any approval is granted.
