Growing Corruption Plagues Nation

Government land fraud and other sorts of corruption have continued to plague our country. Recently, three scams involving government land have made headlines. These land scam incidents have also been raised by several parliamentarians during the current session of Parliament, highlighting the issue of corruption and nefarious nexus prevalent in the government organisations. Scams including the Giri Bandhu Tea Estate in Jhapa, Bansbari Shoe Factory in Kathmandu, and Ram Gram Land in West Nawalparasi have hit the headlines. All these government land scams were perpetrated with the intention of causing financial losses to the government, while the same transactions benefited individuals, high-ranking bureaucrats, and politicians involved in decision-making.
