 Cool down the hateful rhetoric guys. Bahuns have achieved what they have because of their unrelenting commitment towards academics. As far as corruption goes, it is not exclusive to bahuns, its a perversive nature that is practiced by people in power all over the world, be it in the US, Canada, India, Nepal or wherever. There are plenty of examples in Nepal where non-bahuns have been found guilty of graft and embezzlement. The Unity Scandal (Kalu Gurung), Lauda (Hari Bhakta Shrestha), Sudan scandal (Ramesh Chand Thakuri and Hem Bahadur Gurung) just to name a few. 

What do you think of Ramesh Kharel, he's a 'puret' too, but since his tenure crime in Ktm has plumetted by 75 percent. Baburam Bhattarai is bahun who established the rock bed for Nepal's tax system when he was finance minister. Sunil Babu Pant is another Bahun who's crusaded for the rights of LGBT's in Nepal. Uttam Sanjel, yet another Bahun has established the Samata School System where thousands of underprivileged kids in Nepal get private school education for 100 rupees a month. Bhagwan Koirala, Upendra Devkota, Bhola Rijal and other Bahun doctors have made it possible for Nepalis to get standard health care in Nepal itself.

Even the Maoist party, established by two Bahuns, (Prachanda and Baburam) is the one that bats for the rights of ethnic minorities in Nepal although their means may be dubious.

Playing the blame game and oneupmanship is just another way of weak individuals to pass on the buck.
