The Patan High Court has issued an interim order in the name of the Pashupati Area Development Trust and other government authorities, asking them not to obstruct the operation of Pashupati Dharamshala.
Hotel Anand Private Limited had filed a writ petition against the Pashupati Area Development Trust and other bodies at the Patan High Court last Thursday.
Hearing the writ petition, the court has given a 15-day time to both the parties to appear in the court with written responses.
The court ordered both parties to be present for further discussion about the interim order on February 21.
A single bench of Judge Narishwar Bhandari issued the interim order on Sunday.
The interim order has been issued in the name of the defendants – Pashupati Area Development Trust and other 14 other bodies – not to hinder the operation of Nepal-India Friendly Pashupati Dharamshala for Hotel Anand Pvt. Ltd. as per the agreement signed with the hotel on April 12, 2010.
Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation Prem Bahadur Ale had decided to scrap the agreement to operate the Dharamshala.
Nepal bandh against MCC
At a time when Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba and the entire Nepali Congress applied their strength and tactics to pass the Millennium Challenge Corporation, a group of communist parties Wednesday imposed Nepal bandh against the MCC.
The small communist parties, the RPP and even a few leaders of the ruling communist parties are against the passing of the MCC as it is. However, the new political developments have brought the ruling parties together in favour of the MCC, but others took to the street preventing vehicular movements in Kathmandu and other cities on Wednesday morning.
The teachers and students who had reached schools and colleges to attend the morning classes returned home because of the strike.
The suddenly called general strike against the MCC has affected life across the country.
The strike of Wednesday comes as proof that the country has been divided over the MCC issue.
