KATHMANDU, Sept 17: The Impeachment Recommendation Committee of the House of Representatives has finished taking the statement of the suspended Chief Justice Cholendra SJB Rana

Senior member Ram Bahadur Bista said that the Recommendation Committee will hold its next meeting at 3PM today. "The investigation on the impeachment proposal has been completed. The report has yet to be prepared. The draft report has been prepared through the secretariat, and a meeting has been called at 3PM to finalize it," he told reporters.

The term of the House of Representatives (HoR) ends on Saturday itself. Therefore, senior member Bista said that the Committee will submit the report to the Speaker Agni Sapkota on Saturday itself. 

Since the term of the HoR is about to end, there is a little chance of having discussion on the report. Senior member Bista said, “We will submit the report to the Speaker. Now, the decision will take place as per the instruction given by the Speaker.”

The members representing the ruling parties in the committee have taken the stand that the report should be finalized no matter what. However, the lawmakers belonging to the CPN-UML have said that they should start preparing the report only after studying the evidence and documents received so far.
