KATHMANDU, Feb 25: Parliamentarian Sarita Giri on Tuesday accused the ruling Nepal Communist Party of promoting corruption in the country.

Speaking at the meeting of the House of Representatives, Giri claimed that the entire ruling party has been indulged into corruption.

"The corruption is thriving in the country since both the NCP and the NCP-led government are promoting corruption in multiple ways," she said.

Giri went on to say that the NCP is promoting corruption in the name of achieving the goal of Socialism in the country.

Leader Giri also said that the government is trying to cover up the recent audio scandal of immediate past Information Minister Gokul Prasad Baskota, in which, he was found bargaining Rs 700 million in bribe from a Swiss company.
