Prime Minister Sushil Koirala has said that anyone who misuses the rescue and relief fund should be jailed. While taking suggestions from the National Information Commission for implementing transparency in relief operations, PM Koirala added that the government was conducting the relief operations in a free and fair manner. PM Koirala further urged all to generously support the government for relief operations as the government was conducting every relief operation following the criteria and legal provisions as well. The monitoring agencies were active to monitor all the expenditures of the government therefore there was no confusion of misusing the funds. Prime Minister Koirala clarified that all the relief and reconstruction operations should be conducted through the government mechanism. PM Koirala even refuted the rumours that the government was corrupt and partial in relief distribution.
