KATHMANDU, Nov 13: The government has asked the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) Managing Director Kulman Ghising a six-point clarification, aiming to remove Ghising from his position on pretext of his delay to reconnect the electricity supply to the defaulting industrialists upon government’s instruction.
Time and again, the government has been demanding repeated explanations from Ghising. This action is a part of an ongoing effort to remove him from his position, sources said.
Govt seeks clarification from NEA MD Ghising amid preparations...
Energy Minister Deepak Khadka on Tuesday dispatched a letter to Ghising seeking clarification on six points related to a decision made at the secretary level. Giving a deadline of one week, the ministry has asked the NEA chief to send his explanations.
The ministry’s latest action is in addition to a previous 15-point clarification sought from Ghising on October 9. Ghising however has turned down the ministry’s directive showing a cause of the festive season.
In the clarifications, the government has sought explanations on the authority delegated to Ghising in the past four years. Likewise, Ghising has also been asked to provide details on the works he performed to solve issues of the dedicated feeders and trunk lines in the past three months.
