Chief Minister Mangal Bahadur Shahi Fails to Submit Asset Details Within Deadline
Summary
Chief Minister Mangal Bahadur Shahi has not made his asset details public even after the 60-day legal deadline, drawing criticism over good governance and transparency. Officials say the declarations from other ministers are still pending, so the chief minister’s disclosure will be released later.
Key Points
- Chief Minister Mangal Bahadur Shahi has not published his asset details 63 days after taking office, despite a legal requirement to do so within 60 days.
- The Chief Minister and Council of Ministers' office says it has received Shahi's declaration but is waiting for asset details from other ministers before making it public.
- Critics argue that leaders who preach good governance must follow the law and disclose assets on time, or face questions about transparency and accountability.
