Here are a few replies to your responses:

1. First of all, I am surprised by your anti-bahun ranting which has nothing to do with the discussion. And about katto eating brahmin, how many of them do you know? There had been 12 kings in the last two hundred or so years. I know of only the man who ate katto of Dipendra and according to the media report, he didn't get anything more than a few lakh rupees. It won't even suffice him to get a kattha ghaderi near any highway, let alone be an investment banker. In any case, these are rare cases, arriving once every two decade when a king dies and a poor Brahmin decides to take the offer to degrade himself for a small sum of money. He doesn't represent any population, if you are familiar with notion of statistics.

2. Since you insist on changing topic from fiscal corruption to moral corruption, Let me switch over to moral corruption issue even though it has no relationship with the topic at hand.

   Is Madhav Nepal morally corrupt for taking the job of PM? I don't know. But we know that he took the job at a difficult time. Prachanda's moral corruption--the massacre of thousands of  Nepali -- is not even comparable to anybody else's. PM Nepal lost an election that was marred by the actions of gun toting YCL and other Maoists vigilante, so big deal? Come next time, when all these issues are managed, and we will see who loses and who wins the election.

   As for Transparency International, you probably didn't realise what a big fool you are to use that report against MKN. Have you read it? I just read it. Do you know when the data was taken? The report is all about events happening  before 2008. Go and read the report yourself here: http://www.transparency.org/publications/gcr/gcr_2009#dnld 

 This report can't be used against Madhav Nepal who became PM just a year ago.
