Joshi also declined to answer the questions raised about court decisions from his bench stating that Parliament cannot discuss sub-judice cases. Similarly, regarding questions raised on the issue related to Ncell tax cases, he claimed that he was not involved it.


A total of five complaints was registered at the Parliament Secretariat for the hearing of acting CJ Joshi.


Supreme Court’s senior-most Justice Joshi had assumed office as the acting Chief Justice on March 15 after former chief justice Gopal Prasad Parajuli lost his job due to age limit.
