KATHMANDU: Former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dan Bahadur Karki, who was appointed Special Security Advisor to the Prime Minister, received his appointment letter on the day of his appointment, the Ministry of Home Affairs has confirmed.
A Cabinet meeting held on November 4 created the position of Special Security Advisor to the Prime Minister and appointed Karki to the post. He has been assigned the responsibility of providing advice, suggestions and consultations to the Prime Minister on security-related matters.
Ministry of Home Affairs Spokesperson Ananda Kafle confirmed that Karki received his appointment letter on the same day. However, he has yet to report to his office, as the appointment coincided with an extended holiday period for the Tihar and Chhath festivals.
Karki’s office has been established at the Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers in Singha Durbar.
Meanwhile, Karki has filed a writ petition at the Supreme Court challenging the government’s decision to remove him from the post of Inspector General of Police (IGP). He was replaced by Additional Inspector General of Police (AIGP) Dr. Manoj Kumar KC.
