Good job done

The Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) deserves appreciation for starting catching “big fishes” in its net as reported in “NTB official, board members charged with corruption” (THT, 4 April, Page 1). It should be highly applauded for its boldness to chase after such a large number of culprits involved in finishing off state coffers. This is the first high-profile corruption case after Lokman Singh Karki took over as CIAA chief two years ago. Please keep up your good work.

CIAA’s recent investigation has revealed that there was rampant and institutionalized corruption with multiple wrongdoings at Nepal Tourism Board (NTB) with the involvement of incumbent high level government officials. It is shame on them. It is highly suggested to CIAA also start investigating in other government and semi government organizations those are practicing rampant corruptions draining out millions of rupees of peoples paid tax money from the state coffers. Nepal has been every year sliding down in the corruption index as one of the most corrupt countries in the world.

Why don’t the CIAA go to the general public seeking their support by lodging complain with solid proof concerning the wrongdoings being practiced in the government and semi-government organizations and based upon such genuine complains, and start investigating to put other big fishes in its net? There has been several corruption related cases filed by CIAA at the Special Court in the past that got clean chits due to lack of evidences. This should not happen with this NTB’s episode. It is hoped that this time CIAA has gathered reliable proofs to put the culprit behind the bars.

Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously

  Mid-term election and referendum simultaneously The people are tired of politicians who make wonderful promises but have miserably failed to fulfill their rosy promises. As a result, they seem to be gradually losing their credibility by days. However, having said that, the level of political awareness among the majority number of the people is still low which has been the advantage for the politicians to lure them towards their irresponsible and dirty politics. In the recent past weeks, we saw thousands of innocent people out in the streets to cheer up the so-called senior leaders who have miserably failed to lead the nation. We can see now the senior leaders and their parties are busy in forming another coalition government following the Supreme Court’s decision to nullify the unification of NCP a few days ago thus splitting the CPN-UML and CPN-Maoist. It was, in fact, a huge legal blow to them. This situation has created another political chaos in the country which might in...
