Kathmandu- Addressing a program organized on the occasion of the 34th Foundation Day of the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority, President Ram Chandra Poudel has said that the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority should not yield to anyone’s pressure or influence and work without considering the offense and the offender big or small.

He also said that in a situation where the nature and form of corruption is changing, the investigation and prosecution process should also be modernized and that the attention of all parties concerned should be drawn to the issue as some problems and complaints are being received even if the bills related to corruption are not disposed of for a long time.

He also said that by qualitatively improving the living standards of the citizens, we should work for the interest, welfare and international image of the country by making integrity, impartiality, transparency and fearlessness fulfilling the high aspirations of the people for development and good governance, and since Nepal is also a party to the International Convention on the Control of Corruption, it is necessary to amend our laws and mechanisms in accordance with the provisions mentioned in it.
