I was shocked to read in Sudhirendra Sharma's "How indebted are we?" (#62) that the Office of the Auditor General doesn't know how much Nepal owes to multilateral credit agencies. There is no doubt that there is widespread misuse and irregularities of foreign aid and grants, but not letting the Auditor General know means not telling the sovereign Nepali people and their representatives in Parliament about the burden of loans upon them. It is a crime against the people and the country.
