Controversial Doctor Shortlisted for Civil Hospital Executive Director Amidst Past Negligence Allegations

Kathmandu. Dr. Jitendra Pariyar, who has faced questions about professional conduct and medical practice and even undergone action, has been shortlisted for the Executive Director position at the Civil Hospital (Nijamati Karmachari Aspatal) in New Baneshwor. The shortlisting of Dr. Pariyar, a candidate who has previously been suspended, has raised questions about the selection committee's decisions and criteria.

The Chairman of the Civil Hospital's Management Committee is the Chief Secretary of the Government of Nepal. Currently, Govinda Bahadur Karki is the Chief Secretary. The committee includes secretaries from the Ministry of Land Management, Cooperatives, and Poverty Alleviation, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Law, Justice, and Parliamentary Affairs, and Ministry of Health and Population.
