Kathmandu. Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) chief whip Khushbu Oli has said that the state institutions were gradually being made person-centric in the name of reforms.

Unveiling her views through social media today, she said the state institutions were gradually being made person-centric in the name of reforms, claiming that the established process and institutional decorum were being encroached upon.

“Today, in the name of reform, the institutions of the state are gradually being made person-centric. The state is heading in a suicidal and dangerous direction, weakening the established norms and institutional processes. ’

According to her, seniority is not only a matter of age or role sequence but also an overall criterion of institutional memory, legal stability, experience, decision-making ability, performance and trust in the organization.

“The ruling party is trying to establish a false narrative that seniority means graying hair and increasing age, which is wrong. Seniority is an overall measure of institutional memory, legal stability, experience, decision-making, performance and trust in the organization,” she said.

Chief Whip Oli said that the appointment of the fourth highest ranking person to the post of Chief Justice by violating the established role of seniority has set a wrong precedent in constitutional and public appointments. He said the government, which claims to uphold due process, process and institutional dignity, has questioned its own commitment.

“The government’s decision to appoint a fourth-ranked person to the Chief Justice has set a wrong precedent in various constitutional and public appointments in the country,” she said. The government, which claims to uphold due process, process and institutional norms, has once again questioned its own commitment. The move sends a message that authoritarianism is becoming more decisive than law in the state system. Unfortunately, once again, the opportunity to restore order has been lost. ’
