Evidence

  • ३० दिने म्याद (अप्रिल २७) बित्दासम्म कुनै सार्वजनिक प्रमाण छैन।

Summary

Monitor notes: DEADLINE MISSED. 30-day deadline (Apr 27) passed with no public evidence of progress.

What is this?

Drafting comprehensive legislation to protect whistleblowers who report corruption, fraud, or abuse of power — guaranteeing anonymity, protecting against retaliation, and rewarding genuine disclosures.

Impact on people

Insiders with knowledge of corruption can report safely. Currently, reporting corruption often destroys the reporter's career. Legal protection encourages the flow of critical information.

Why it matters

Nepal has no whistleblower protection law. People who report corruption face transfers, termination, social pressure, and sometimes physical threats — effectively silencing accountability.
