Chitwan, February 5:

Minister for Forest and Soil Conservation Matrika Yadav today warned of seizing vehicles and property belonging to the Nature Conservation Trust (NCT) being used by the royal family.

Speaking at a press conference organised by the Chitwan chapter of Revolutionary Journalists’ Association here today, he said that the palace has been directly taking the fund of four crore rupees every year and has been using the property of the NCT as its private property.

“The palace has not returned a dozen vehicles of the NCT. If the vehicles are not returned, the government will seize it,” he said.
