Bharatpur mayor faces graft charge



BHARATPUR: Parbati Shah Thakuri, deputy mayor of Bharatpur Metropolitan City,  has accused its Mayor Renu Dahal of being involved in corruption. Thakuri blamed the Mayor for not forming Public Accounts Committee, constituting important committees unilaterally and creating problems for employees thanks to political prejudices.

Similarly, she blamed her for not coordinating with her in operating executive meeting. In a press meet called by the deputy mayor here today, Thakuri narrated about the problems she encountered in the course of fulfilling her duties and responsibilities towards the municipality. “The agendas of the executive meeting have been brought in an unilateral manner. I am not informed about the meeting and its agenda on time. I am not even allowed to put forth my dissatisfaction,” she complained.

The Deputy Mayor complained that the Metropolitan City has not assigned sufficient number of technicians and employees as mentioned in the local-government operation act.
