Kathmandu. The Kumari Bank led by Ram Chandra Khanal, who was found to have been disqualified as per the Supreme Court’s verdict, has been found to have illegally promoted 18 employees in Kumari Bank. The bank has been found to have done this by flouting its own bylaws.
Reappointment of 18 people is illegal!

But take a look at this list and

The list, which was secretly provided to BankingSansar.com by the employees of the bank’s HR department, has a list of only 18 people, so it cannot be called a regular promotion list.TAG_OPEN_span_18 If not, the bank will issue a separate promotion list when it is promoted. To show that this is not a promotion list, the bank has called this list an external vacancy. However, neither the bank has taken out any vacancy nor has it completed the process of vacancy. The bank’s HR department has argued that it will continue to work in its current position till January 23, 2026, and then to another position from February 12, 2026, which is completely illegal.
The memo has been signed by the bank’s Deputy CEO Sudhir Nath Pandey and CEO of the bank Ram Chandra Khanal.TAG_OPEN_span_16
