NSC reports on fake
certificates
Post Report
KATHMANDU, Feb 8: A probing committee,
investigating on fake certificates among National Sports Council (NSC) staff, has
submitted its final report to the council’s member-secretary Binod Shanker Palikhe on
Friday, said a council press release.
Palikhe, upon receipt of the report, declared
that the council would form a separate high-level probing committee and contact all
suspected national and foreign educational institutes to confirm authenticity of the
certificates. "Only after carrying out the investigation, we will take charge against
the culprit," the release quoted Palikhe as saying.
The committee, working in four divisions, took
40 days to complete its investigation, said Ramesh Khanal, the coordinator for probing
committee. According to Khanal, the committee has found certificates from various foreign
countries alongside India at the council.
He said that the committee, instead of verifying
authenticity of those certificates, has only drawn out exact number from files of such
individual staff and that the names of such certificate holders and their number would be
kept confidential.
He also pointed out the necessity for approval
of those certificates from respective educational institutes while suggesting NSC to form
a high-level committee for the purpose.
Apart from Khanal, the three-member probing
committee included Keshab Raj Gautam and Rudra Prashad Dhakal. Departmental chiefs,
administrative officers, chief coaches and officials of NSC were also present at the
function. |
