The police have seized 14 trucks on the suspicion that cement is being transported by evading revenue in the hydropower project. During the investigation from Friday to Sunday, the police seized the truck that was transporting without tax invoices.

It has also been revealed that the transport company that transported the seized trucks has evaded taxes. Although there is a tax bill for transportation from the cement company to the distributor's warehouse in the capital, it has been revealed that the trucks are delivering the hydropower project without paying the bill directly from the distributor.

Since tax bill receipts were not found in most of the trucks that were seized, it is possible that they are running a racket to evade revenue by illegally transporting large quantities of hydropower projects directly from the bills of the cement company, DSP Gyan Kumar Mahato said.

"It seems that the distributor is running a revenue evasion racket without paying taxes to the state on cement transportation worth billions," he said, "When the distributor sends cement to the project, the relevant distributor company should have a bill bill, the project does not appear to have been purchased directly from the company." But he said that no bill of lading document was found with the seized cement truck.

The police seized 5 trucks from Singti, 3 from Sunkhani in Kalinchok Rural Municipality-8, 4 from Kharidhunga and 2 from Charikot. Sources said that the police are under pressure to release the truck unconditionally and not to investigate after the police seized the truck without a bill of lading on suspicion of revenue evasion.

It has been found that the company in charge of cement distribution in the hydropower project of the district does not issue bills and shows the documents given by the cement company for certain locations.

The cement coming from Dhading to Kathmandu was not unloaded in the warehouse of Kathmandu to cheat the revenue  It is revealed that the distributor has directly sent Dolakha . The police said that unloading documents of Sindhupalchok, Kavre were seen from the seized truck.

Similarly, the cement shipping company has also been found cheating on revenue. According to the police, there are 5 thousand 80 sacks of cement from the seized trucks till Sunday. The truck has been assigned to the Internal Revenue Office Charikot. Head of Office Bimal Kumar Paudel said that the tax bill documents were not followed in the cement shipment . "It is seen that there are no tax invoice documents on the cement trucks transported to the hydropower project of the district," he said, "Since this is the Maharajganj office for investigation and monitoring, we have written it and sent it there for further investigation."
