National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) could withdraw its representative from a recommendation committee formed to select new officials for the two transitional justice bodies as a last resort to put pressure on the Government to revise the amendment bill to the National Human Rights Commission Act 2012 and to initiate the process to amend the existing transitional justice Act, reports Kathmandu Post on May 3. A member of the commission said Prakash Osti, who is representing the commission in the recommendation committee, could be recalled if the Government did not promptly take positive steps to address the commission’s concerns. Govinda Sharma Paudyal, who heads the publicity department at the commission, said the constitutional watchdog’s decision will depend upon the move of the Government. “Voices to call our member Osti back from the recommendation committee are getting stronger. If the government doesn’t correct its mistake, a decision to that effect is possible,” he told the Post.
