why did a judge refuse the bench?

A judge, Justice Fuyal, refused to sit on the constitutional bench due to concerns about the arbitrary formation of the bench by Chief Justice Sharma. This refusal was part of a boycott by Justice Fuyal and others, who raised issues about impartiality and transparency in how the constitutional bench was formed. The situation has also drawn criticism from the Nepal Bar Association, which protested against the opaque practices in the bench's formation. This controversy highlights ongoing dissent among Supreme Court judges regarding seniority, inclusivity, and transparency in judicial appointments and bench formations.
