As known, the acting tenure of Mr. Purushottam Khanal was coming to end. So, Government announced the vacancy for the NTA chairman position to assume for 4 years.

Although it seems a fair competition and all the processes has been followed, rumors are rife that current acting chairman will be appointed at all costs.
