Kathmandu, 10 December: Corruption practices in Nepal cannot be controlled under the present political system. The political parties in the government have developed a common consensus for recruiting party workers in all the constitutional bodies, including the judiciary, under the “bhagbanda” politics.
The “bhagbanda” politics has encouraged bad governance and corruption practices as the culprits are not punished but living a prestigious life in the society.
Amidst celebrating the International Anti-Corruption Day on 9 December, Prime Minister Pushpakamal Dahal admitted that the state has not performed its responsibility properly for establishing good governance in the country.
PM Dahal remarked that the introduction of good governance and providing services to the service recipients without hurdles is the main responsibility of the state. He admitted that the government led by him has not maintained the responsibility properly.
Due to a lack of action and punishment against the individuals involved in corruption, the corruption tendency is on the rise. The fact is that political leaders need money to run their parties. The easy way to make money is corruption. Corrupt bureaucrats support the mission of political leaders by paving the way for planned corruption. For impunity from their involvement in corruption, the political parties recruit their own men in the corruption control bodies. In such a manner, corruption practices have been institutionalised strongly.
