THT ONLINE

KATHMANDU: CPN-UML Chairman Jhala Nath Khanal on Friday returned the government vehicle provided to him as a part of facilities to the former prime minister.

In a statement, Khanal’s personal secretary Rambabu Adhikari said that the vehicle (with registration number Ba 6 Cha 1026) was handed over to the Office of the Prime Minister, Singhadurbar today.

He further stated that the UML chairman has not taken other facilities including staffers and residence from the state coffers.

“Our attention has been drawn towards the criticism of decision that the caretaker government made through ordinance to give continuity to the facilities of vehicle facility and security that the Nepal government had been providing to the VIPs,” the statement said in a bid to explain the reason to return the vehicle.

UCPN-Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal and CPN-UML senior leader Madhav Kumar --both of them former prime ministers-- and Nepali Congress Vice President Ram Chandra Paudel, former Speaker, have already returned the vehicles provided to them.

Nepal is a laughing stock for the whole world to see and witness. Why should Nepali ministers keep the vehicles meant for the posts whilst they or any new dim-wit minister were in office, especially if these greedy dim-witted no longer hold that position? Why does poor Nepal allow these dim-wits to keep government vehicles when they are no longer employed by the Nepali janta? If Nepal continues with this trend and judging by the number of Prime Ministers and other ministers change in a month - no wonder Nepal is a bankrupt and poor country, trodded upon by its own leaders.

NC and CPN-UML leaders are all very corrupt. They take everything from the Nepali people in the name of being "VIP" and then act like "VIM" (Very Important Monkey). Suraj Rajbhandhari, Putali Sadak, Kathmandu
