Swarnim Wagle, Deputy Chairman of the Rashtriya Swatantra Party and Member of Parliament, has said that it is necessary to introduce a customs law to transform the customs system which is in the form of maldar and badnam adda.

In the discussion on the bill made to amend and unify customs laws in Tuesday's meeting of the Finance Committee under the House of Representatives, Wagle said that the customs system should be reformed. He said that a customs law should be made to prevent large transactions in customs security agencies and customs personnel transfers. Mentioning that it is necessary to close the place where trafficking is done through the

act, he said that there is a need to make a law to stop the tendency of working in the customs because of the lack of documents to stop the goods arriving at the customs.

"Customs law should come in order to stop large transactions in customs security agencies and customs personnel transfers". We should go towards closing the place where the fraud is done through the law. It cannot be eliminated through customs policy. Tazbiji has a tendency to work . A law should be made to stop it. The trend of working with customs should be eradicated,' Wagle said, 'Customs system should be digitized, digitized, automated and physically present. If caught by defrauding the customs, if there is an irreversible action, it will bring reforms in the customs . Technologies and best practices have emerged for agile transformation of Badnam Customs. It is necessary to use the technology of countries that are higher than Nepal in customs technology. There is political commitment to reform. We have to transform Maldar and Badnaam Adda.'

Wagley was of the opinion that customs duty should be reduced on labor, clean energy, export or import substitution goods in Nepal. He mentioned that there should be low customs duty on items used for export or capital construction. Wagle's suggestion was that there should be a provision in the law to confirm the basis for setting customs rates as the government is adopting arbitrary customs rates.
