Four ordinances from the batch issued by President Ramchandra Paudel in April 2026 are likely to lapse, as the government did not bring them before Parliament for approval. They are: the Special Arrangement Ordinance on the Removal from Office of Public Officials 2083, the Constitutional Council (Work, Duties, Rights and Procedures) (First Amendment) Ordinance 2083, the Ordinance to Amend Some Nepal Laws Related to Universities 2083, and the Ordinance to Amend Some Nepal Laws 2083.
Under Nepal's constitutional framework, ordinances must receive parliamentary endorsement within a specified period or they cease to have effect. The government's failure to table these four ordinances means they will not transition into permanent law.
