Kathmandu, April 25 (RSS): The Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) has urged local level representatives to stay away from involvement in any sort of irregularities and corruption.
The anti-graft body’s concern comes as part of an interaction it is holding with chief, deputy chief, and administrative officers at local levels of all seven provinces on ‘integrity and importance of local government’.
The CIAA on Monday concluded the two-day interaction with people’s representatives of Province 3.
Addressing the intercourse, acting CIAA Chief Nabin Kumar Ghimire stressed the need for people’s representatives to embrace rules and system for institutionalising and strengthening democracy as local government is the backbone for democracy.
He also said the local government should work for the people, and abstain from corruption, while pointing out its role in maintaining good governance in the country.
More than 300 people’s representatives participated in the interaction. Earlier as part of its drive, the CIAA already held interactions in Province 1 and 2.
