Nepali Congress VP Sharma Vows to Initiate Corruption Probe Within His Own Party Leadership

Bhaktapur. Nepali Congress Vice President Bishwa Prakash Sharma has stated that upon assuming leadership of the government, he will initiate corruption investigations starting from within his own party, rather than from others. Speaking at a large election rally organized by the Nepali Congress in Thimi, Bhaktapur, Vice President Sharma announced that the investigation would begin with the party's own leaders, whether it concerns whether the assets of party President Gagan Kumar Thapa decreased or increased while he was a minister, or the assets of Sher Bahadur Deuba.

Stating that anyone involved in corruption will be brought under the purview of the law to make the country corruption-free, he urged the public not to fall for the illusion that the country will change just by making a specific individual the Prime Minister.

Stating that a team, not just one person, is needed to change the country, Vice President Sharma said, "The country does not change by making some specific individual the Prime Minister, nor are we under the illusion that the country will change just by making Gagan Thapa the Prime Minister." He asserted that the country can only change if the team is strong, and stated that the Congress possesses the strength and capability to change the nation.

At the program, Nepali Congress Central Committee member Astakumar Kwe, Bhaktapur District President Durlabh Thapa, and Congress candidate for Bhaktapur Constituency No. 2 Kabir Rana, among others, stated that only the Nepali Congress can make the people feel the change.
