The ad hoc committee of the central working committee of Nepal Karate Federation has been formed under the chair of Yuabraj Lama.

Ghising said that the Lama was given the responsibility of realizing the historical needs of the time.

Likewise, Lama pledged to move ahead by considering the interests of the sportspersons and organization adding that he would hold the elections in a free and fair manner within prior to the given time of three months.
