Former Prime Minister and Nepal Samajwadi Party leader Baburam Bhattarai has been raising the issue of investigating the assets of all leaders and employees since 2046. He has said that he is also ready for that.

As he said, the assets of all people in government positions should be investigated. Bhattarai has said what no leader has dared to say so far. Are leaders in politics to earn?

The double character of a leader who repeatedly talks about making a corruption-free country and protects the corrupt should end. Yesterday, when he came to the capital, how the person who was walking on the pavement wearing slippers and biting corn, has built a luxurious house, how it was possible, should be a subject of investigation. Ravi Lamichhane, the chairman of RSVP, who was arrested in cooperative fraud, has also been charged with money laundering, and his parliamentary position has been suspended. Whether the court will decide in his favor or not is a matter for later. 

The government has a question, is Ravi the only such character in this country, who has earned wealth through corruption? Not only him, other leaders involved in cooperative fraud, their families as well as other leaders involved in corruption cases should be immediately investigated. There should be an end to the situation where leaders have fun by imposing tax upon tax on the people. Whoever is corrupt should be prosecuted according to the law, regardless of political urges. Under the guise of politics, corruption has increased in the country. In this way, if the culprits are prosecuted after investigating the assets of leaders and employees, corruption will be reduced by 50 percent.
