KATHMANDU: A special committee formed to investigate former Finance Minister Janardan Sharma has received seven more days to complete its probe.
The House of Representatives had formed a special committee to investigate Sharma after criticism from all sides against Sharma for allowing unauthorized persons entry into the Ministry to selectively alter the tax rate during the preparation of the budget for the financial year 2022-23.
The special committee, which was initially given 10 days to submit its report, was unable to complete its probe and sought additional seven days to conclude the probe.
Speaker Agni Prasad Sapkota proposed extending the term of the special committee by seven days in the House of Representatives meeting today. The HoR approved the agenda.
