KATHMANDU: A probe committee formed by the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation has made public the study report on the operation of a coffee shop on the premises of Narayanhiti Durbar Museum.

The report was made public at a program in Kathmandu Monday.

On the occasion, Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation Prem Ale said that preliminary information indicated that the Batas Group was constructing infrastructure over 14 ropanis land against the actual agreement signed for use of just 6.34 acre land. He reminded that such encroachments and irregularities were taking place across the country.

Minister Ale said that further discussion would take place on the probe panel’s report. He added the attention of the Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) would also be drawn to the issue.

The ministry had formed an investigation committee under the coordination of Joint-Secretary at the Ministry Hom Prasad Luintel to investigate the decision-process taken that gave permission to Batas Group for running business, including a restaurant, inside the Narayanhiti Palace Museum.

The probe committee also concluded that the agreement was prepared in collusion and signed.
