A Cabinet meeting held earlier on Tuesday had made a recommendation to this effect.


Earlier, the KP Oli-led government had unceremoniously sacked Sherchan from the post of Gandaki Province Chief and appointed Sita Paudel as the province chief.


The Cabinet meeting on Tuesday also dismissed Lumbini Province Chief Dharma Nath Yadav, who was also appointed by the Oli-led government, to pave the way for Sherchan to assume office as the Province Chief.
