Special Security Advisor Karki received appointment letter
Kathmandu, Nov 15: The Ministry of Home Affairs has stated that former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dan Bahadur Karki, who was appointed as the Special Security Advisor to the Prime Minister, received his appointment letter on the very day of the appointment.
The Cabinet meeting held on November 4 had created the position of 'Special Security Advisor to the Prime Minister' and appointed Karki to the post, tasking him with providing necessary advice, suggestions, and consultations on security matters.
Spokesperson for the Ministry of Home Affairs, Ananda Kafle, confirmed that Karki received his appointment letter the same day. However, he has not yet reported to the office, as the period coincided with an extended holiday for the Tihar and Chhath festivals. His office has been set up within the Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers at Singha Durbar.
Meanwhile, former IGP Karki has filed a writ petition at the Supreme Court challenging the government's decision to remove him from the position of Inspector General of Police. Karki was replaced by AIGP Dr Manoj Kumar KC.
