President Bidhya Devi Bhandari on Tuesday has nominated three names for the National Assembly.
The President's Office informed that former Nepal Rastra Bank governor Yuba Raj Khatiwada, Ram Narayan Bidari and Bimala Paudel have been nominated for the National Assembly on recommendation of the Cabinet. The Cabinet meeting held Tuesday morning had recommended their names.
The previous Cabinet meeting led by caretaker Sher Bahadur Deuba government had recommended Gopal Basnet, Krishna Prasad Paudel and Chandani Joshi to President Bidhya Devi Bhandari. However, President's Office did not approve the recommendations.
KP Oli-led government had decided to withdraw the names recommended by Deuba two days ago.
