Prime minister Sher Bahadur Deuba as the ex-officio Chancellor of the TU had to instruct the TU administration to annul the affiliation given to the KNMC, as it had not meet the requirements for running a medial college. The TU administration revoked the affiliation following the report a three-member probe committee led by Sanat Devkota to inspect the infrastructure of the KNMC prepared and submitted to the TU.
