KATHMANDU, AUG 14, 2012
The Chief Executive Appointment Recommendation Committee, a panel formed to recommend candidates for the post of chief executives in public enterprises, on Monday shortlisted five candidates for the post of administrator of the Employees Provident Fund (EPF).
Those shortlisted are Kailash Bhakta Karanjit, Krishna Prasad Acharya, Radha Krishna Pote, Sushil Kumar Aryal and Hasana Sharma, according to source at Public Enterprise Board (PEB). Except Aryal, all other candidates are EPF employees. Six had applied for the post.
Sharma is the officiating administrator of EPF, while Pote is acting chief officer. Karanjit and Acharya are deputy chief officers at EPF and Aryal is a manager at Citizen Investment Trust.
A meeting of the committee, which is headed by the chairman of Public Service Commission (PSC), also decided to call the five candidates for personal presentations and interview on August 25.
As per the Public Enterprises Directorate Board Order, the committee will select three candidates from the five shortlisted and recommends to the Cabinet for selecting one. PEB Chairman Bimal Wagle said the committee would make the recommendation on the same day the candidates are interviewed.
PEB initiated the selection process after the Election Commission (EC) lifted the ban on appointing chief executives in public enterprises. Wagle said the selection process in other PEs will resume gradually.
Meanwhile, PEB on Sunday issued vacancy notices for the posts of chief executive officer at the Hydroelectric Investment and Development Company, general manager at Nepal Television, managing director at Janak Education Material Centre and administrator at Rastriya Beema Sansthan. Applicants have been asked to submit their application within 21 days of the publication of the notices.
Earlier, the board had initiated process of appointing chief executives at the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA), Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC), and Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC) and Employees Provident Fund (EPF), but the Supreme Court has halted new appointments at NEA and NOC issuing interim order, while there is confusion on whether to appoint a general manager at NAC in the presence of an executive chairman.
More than half dozen PEs are operating without chief executives. Amid complaints about political appointment of chief executives that harmed state-owned corporations, the government introduced the concept of appointing PE chiefs through free competition by forming PEB.
