GenZ Movement Demands Resignation of Home Minister Sudhan Gurung Over Corruption Allegations
Kathmandu. The GenZ Movement Nepal has demanded that the government immediately dismiss Home Minister Sudhan Gurung to ensure an impartial investigation into the serious allegations leveled against him.
In a press statement issued on Monday by the movement's spokesperson, Bijay Shah, it was stated that remaining in the ministerial position would influence the investigation process and serve as a clear example of a conflict of interest.
The statement asserts that conducting an investigation against oneself while holding a ministerial office is contrary to basic ethics and legal principles, making Gurung's resignation mandatory for fair justice.
The GenZ Movement has also urged the government led by Balen Shah not to treat the appointment and removal of ministers as a crude and undignified game. The statement emphasizes that the decision of who to include in the cabinet is a serious political and ethical matter, and responsible leadership must demonstrate maturity, foresight, and accountability.
'This is not an ordinary government; it represents a mandate obtained from the blood sacrifice of 76 martyrs,' the statement reads, 'No one has the right to play cheap politics with the sacrifices of the people.' The movement has also warned that any compromise or delay in matters of good governance, transparency, and accountability will not be tolerated.
Gurung has been embroiled in controversy after his partnership with controversial businessman Deepak Bhatta was exposed.
