Nepal Samajwadi Party Chairperson Dr Baburam Bhattarai pointed out the need of a high-level investigation committee to curb corruption.
In a discussion with journalists at Tikapur, Kailali district on Sunday, Chairman Bhattarai, also former Prime Minister, reiterated that such a committee was needed because corruption cases of all scale would come to fore and true investigation could be conducted into those cases.
Stating that there had been huge corruption from high officials, he claimed that all those facts were yet to come to light. "The innocent ones should not be prosecuted while no culprit should be spared," he said.
According to him, the incumbent government had delivered some promising works regarding corruption but there was no condition to be satisfied yet.
As for his alleged involvement in the Lalita Niwas land grab scam, he said that he was ready to face the music if he is proven guilty. He demanded an impartial investigation into the scam.
On a different note, leader Bhattarai argued that it was the need of hour to move ahead towards socialism on the basis of democratic republic.
"There should be a structural change. There should be a system of appointing the President and Chief Minister through the First-Past-The-Post system. We had raised the same issue in the past. We are going public with this agenda. It is what we need now," he underscored.
