Member of the House of Representatives and former Minister of Education Sumana Shrestha has demanded that the report of the Land Inquiry Committee of the University be made public immediately. She said that the report of the high-level committee should be made public in Wednesday's meeting of the Education, Health and Information Technology Committee of the House of Representatives.

Shrestha also demanded that the Prime Minister, who is in the position of Chancellor, should be invited to the committee and discussed.  When Ashok Rai was the education minister, the current minister and I were MPs. We asked to call the chancellor to discuss higher education right away. "Now, the chancellor should be invited to discuss the report of the land investigation committee of the University," she said.

After receiving complaints about embezzlement of dozens of Ropani lands of the university with the involvement of former officials of the university and some political persons, the government of Nepal established a five-member high-level committee under the coordination of former secretary Sharda Prasad Trital on the proposal of the then Minister of Education, Science and Technology Sumana Shrestha on May 17. There used to be news that some private houses were being built on the land of the university, some were private schools and petrol pumps were being run. 

The high-level committee formed by the Nepal government to investigate the land of Tribhuvan University has submitted its report to the government. Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has said that whoever embezzles the land of Tribhuvan University will be brought under the scope of action according to the law. Prime Minister Oli said that the government has received the report of the University Land and Property Search Commission and said that the government will proceed with the action as per the recommendation of the commission.
