Constitutional affairs experts have questioned Nepal Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli’s decision to reshuffle his Cabinet to induct eight ministers, five of them former Maoist leaders, and change the portfolio of five of his ministers.

While critics say the Oli government has been reduced to a care-taker status and the prime minister can’t reshuffle his Cabinet, supporters say he has every right to do so.

“The Oli government has been reduced to a caretaker status and a prime minister of such a government does have the moral, political and constitutional authority to reshuffle his Cabinet,” senior advocate Chandra Kanta Gyawali, an expert of constitutional affairs, told the Post.
