Know basics of Nepal’s corruption law

In all countries, large or small, developed or developing, corruption prevails. It has remained a consistent phenomenon. The evidence suggests it is prevalent for thousands of years. Therefore, there is a corruption law in every country to control such practices.

In general people’s understanding, corruption is an abuse of authority for the gain of oneself. However, the definition cannot be limited to this. It includes wide-ranging actions such as taking bribes, patronising at the expense of public office, using authority for action(s) that are non-legal, among others.
