Even though in his political life, PSJB has stayed clean (I should say arguably clean considering Sardarsing's posting above,) he comes with a big baggage. He did not have to be doing the dirty work of scandals in his lifetime; his ancestors did it big time for him when the Rana's ripped off our country for over a century. One may argue, greed is never ending and he could have amassed more when he was in power, that he did not do which is a plus. The LP gas factory is not a big thing in terms of its worth ( it probably is a minuscule part of his total worth) and its success. It was a monopoly since the Panchayat Era, like star Beer, Shanti Ghee etc; success is guaranteed when you have a monopoly on a commodity every one needs.
