Kathmandu. The 14 ordinances brought during the KP Oli-led government have been inactivated and have been affected from the country’s budget to the provision of punishment for serious criminal cases. If the country is unable to spend due to lack of approval from the House of Representatives and non-replacement through the replacement bill, the punishment for acid attackers will also affect the allowance received by single women.
The Oli government passed the Financial Ordinance, 2078, National Debt Raising Ordinance, 2078, Appropriation Ordinance, 2078, Ordinance to Amend Some Acts on Criminal Offenses and Criminal Procedure, 2078, Ordinance to Amend Some Acts Against Sexual Violence, 2078, Nepal Police and State Police (Operations) , Supervision and Coordination) (First Amendment) The ordinance, 2078, Social Security (First Amendment) Ordinance, 2078, Acid and Other Hazardous Chemicals (Regulation) Ordinance, 2078, Nepal Citizenship (First Amendment) Ordinance, 2078, Kovid-19 Crisis Management Ordinance, 2078, Medicine (Third Amendment) Ordinance, 2078, Concerning the Safety of Health Workers and Health Institutions (First Amendment) Ordinance, 2078, Railway Ordinance, 2078 and Ordinance on Oath, 2078 were issued.
The Social Security (First Amendment) Ordinance 2077 provided for all single women to receive social security allowances. Earlier, only single women above 60 years of age received social security allowance. However, the ordinance also provided security allowance to single women under the age of 60. In the ordinance, the previous provision of not getting social security allowance to the persons with severe disability was amended and provision was made to provide social security allowance to the persons with severe disability.
With the repeal of the ordinance, women victims of acid attacks and violence will also be affected by the purchase of the Corona vaccine. The Ordinance on Sexual Violence brought by the Oli government had a provision to take action against those who conspired in rape cases and to increase the punishment of those involved in rape. After the ordinance became inactive, the way has been reopened for reconciliation in rape cases.
The Acid and Other Hazardous Chemicals (Regulation) Ordinance provides for up to 20 years in prison for acid attack, up to Rs 1 million for acid attack, and a guarantee of employment. With the repeal of the ordinance, the facilities for the acid victims and the punishment for the culprits have been removed. Nowadays, if someone attacks with acid, action will be taken according to the old law.
As soon as the Railway Ordinance brought by the Oli government became inactive, it will no longer be possible to operate railway service to the land of one or more foreign countries or to a foreign country going to the land of Nepal or to another foreign country through the land of Nepal. According to this provision included in the ordinance, a train had arrived in Nepali land from India with a container only a day ago.
