There is a legal provision to make Accident Investigation Commission mandatory to find out the cause of any non-military aviation accident within Nepal. The Council of Ministers has formed a 5-member commission on Wednesday to investigate the accident. In the meeting of the parliamentary committee, the director general of the authority said that they could not talk about the ship accident as the commission had already started the investigation.

Rashtriya Swatantra Party MP Shishir Khanal and Congress MP Rana said that there is a trend of tourism ministers and heads of regulatory agencies resigning from their positions when there are air accidents in other countries. In this regard, the director general's reply was, 'The honorable said that the director general should resign after the accident due to personal bias. However, the reports so far have shown the pilot to be guilty in most of the incidents and not the director general.'

The director general expressed the opinion with Kantipur that there would be no objection if the bill designed to divide the authority was advanced. "If there is an improvement in aviation safety, it is acceptable for the authority to bring an act or an ordinance," he said He said that the investigation commission will identify the cause of the accident, expose the human and mechanical deficiencies in the accident, recommend measures to be adopted for safety and collect and analyze information to prevent future accidents.

'The report of the commission does not prescribe punishments,' he said, 'the commission is to warn to prevent more accidents. The airline companies will not develop if the commission starts imposing punishments by pointing out the culprits. The report of the investigation commission must be provided to the concerned bodies including the ship manufacturing company, the International Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Aviation Safety Agency (IASA) under the European Union.
