Details

Nepal Sanskrit University has filled its primary executive posts by appointing a new Rector and Registrar. Education and Sports Minister Sashmit Pokharel formally appointed Prof. Dr. Jagannath Regmi as Rector and Prof. Dr. Nabaraj Kattel as Registrar. The university had previously appointed Prof. Dr. Bhim Khatiwada to the post of Vice-Chancellor.

These key leadership appointments were selected through an open competitive framework rather than direct political nomination. A three-person recommendation committee, coordinated by Prof. Dr. Madhav Sharan Upadhyaya, evaluated candidates before presenting their recommendations to the ministry.

The completion of executive appointments aims to bring stability to administrative operations and academic schedules at the university. If you have questions regarding university admissions or academic timelines, feel free to ask a question on our student platform.
