According to a statement issued by the CIAA on Sunday, the anti-graft body has also decided to write to Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai to send the energy minister, the ministry secretary and the concerned files to the CIAA office for investigation.
There are complaints about Minister Yadav that he is seeking one percent commission from each of the projects under the ministry which has thrown development programs on the backburner.
Due to the minister´s stance, according to the complaints, the government has already missed the deadlines for implementation of the development programs.
For the last few years, only 80 percent of the development budget is being spent every year.
