The Supreme Court (SC) is beginning the hearing of 16 writ petitions lodged against the dissolution of the House of Representatives (HoR).

Spokesperson at the SC Arjun Prasad Koirala said that preliminary hearings on different writ petitions will begin from today.

The petitions were filed at the SC demanding the restoration of the HoR and annulment of the appointment of the Prime Minister.

The petitions were registered at the SC following the new political course developed in the country after the Gen-Z protests of September 8 and 9.
