Chief Justice Bishwambhar Prasad Shrestha, along with justices Anand Mohan Bhattarai and Kumar Regmi, cited previous decisions in similar cases as precedents, leading them to set the next hearing for October 31.


The justices have emphasized that the case under consideration is related to previous cases and, as such, it cannot be heard separately. Therefore, the hearing for this case has been rescheduled for October 31.
