Politics
Ulaanbaatar, October 21, 2025 /MONTSAME/. The Constitutional Court of Mongolia will convene a public plenary session on October 22, 2025, at 9:30 a.m. to examine the legal dispute concerning the dismissal of the Prime Minister. The session will be held in the Court’s session hall.
The Prime Minister formally petitioned the Constitutional Court to consolidate proceedings and determine whether the dismissal process, as well as the actions of Deputy Chairman of State Great Khural, Bulgantuya Khurelbaatar violated constitutional provisions and procedural requirements.
The case centers on several key
articles of the Constitution:
Article 1, Section 2 affirms that democratic principles, justice, freedom, equality, national unity, and the rule of law are foundational to state activity.
Article 43, Section 1 outlines the procedure for dismissing a Prime Minister, requiring a proposal from at least one-fourth of parliament members, deliberation within three days, and a decision within ten days. If a majority supports the proposal, the dismissal is deemed adopted, and a new Prime Minister must be appointed within thirty days.
Article 70, Section 1 mandates that all laws, decrees, and actions of state bodies and citizens must comply with the Constitution.
As the matter demands immediate and thorough judicial review, the Full Bench of the Constitutional Court has completed preparations for the hearing.
