Health Minister Mehta: Bill to Amend Laws for Fair Selection of Health Science Institute Officials

Kathmandu. Health and Food Sanitation Minister Nisha Mehta has stated that the government is bringing a bill to amend some Nepal laws to make the selection, recommendation, and appointment process of health science institute officials more impartial, transparent, and organized.

Responding to questions raised by members of the National Assembly on Saturday regarding the bill to amend some Nepal laws related to health science institutes, 2083, she said this. She clarified that the bill is necessary to make the functioning of health science institutes, which are operating with the objective of providing easy and quality health services to citizens, more effective and robust. She mentioned that during the discussion, most members of parliament raised questions about the process of issuing ordinances rather than the theoretical aspect of the bill, and she pledged to consider bringing ordinances in the future.
