Kathmandu. Home Minister Sudhan Gurung resigned from his post on Wednesday. Addressing questions and comments raised by the public regarding his share investments and connections with controversial businessman Deepak Bhatta, he announced his resignation on moral grounds.
Through social media platform Facebook, Minister Gurung informed that he has stepped down from his position effective from today. Having led the Home Administration since Chaitra 13, he emphasized that public life must be clean and transparent.
Minister Gurung stated that morality is greater than a position and public trust is greater than power. 'The Gen-Z movement, which is rising in the country demanding good governance and accountability, has sent a message that public life must be clean,' he said, 'If anyone raises questions about this government, which was formed on the basis of the blood and sacrifice of my 46 brothers and sisters, then the answer must be morality.'
He clarified that he resigned with the intention of ensuring an impartial investigation into matters related to him and to avoid any 'conflict of interest' while in office.
During the announcement of his resignation, Gurung also raised questions of morality for media personnel. He said, 'Where some media friends have 'sweet shares', that will also come out slowly. Those who desire a Ramrajya (ideal state) must also be able to show sacrifice and moral courage.'
Addressing the general public and youth, he appealed that if they truly want change, everyone must stand on the path of truth, honesty, and self-purification.
