Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) lawmaker Rajiv Khatri has pointed out the need of purification of Nepal Scouts by freeing them from political influence. <\/p>\n<p> Addressing the convocation ceremony of Nepal Scouts Interim National Executive Committee Chief Commissioner Santosh Kumar Thapa and those appointed to the post of members, lawmaker Khatri congratulated the newly-appointed working committee and said that the time has come to work now.&#8221;I want to congratulate all those who have been elected,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>A new working committee has been formed under the leadership of Santosh Kumar Thapa. Congratulations and best wishes to all. Now they don&#8217;t have time to congratulate and greet them, because there is work to be done. Khatri said that managing time and fulfilling responsibilities is a big challenge for the scouts.&#8221;For others, it is said that there are 24 hours in a day, but for Scouts, there are 36 hours. The challenge for them is to turn 24 hours into 36 hours,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p> He further said that the government has to hand over the responsibility of holding elections to all 753 local levels, seven provinces and the federal government within the next 11 months.<\/p>\n<p>Khatri said that not only handing over the responsibility but also reforming and purifying the scouts is necessary.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;For years, Scouting has revolved around politics. Therefore, it is also their responsibility to purify it. It&#8217;s important for the scouts to be scouts this time,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-22_a4053950-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-21_2aa402cc-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-19_5ffb1c77-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-18_3a8480c5-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-17_4bd559c6-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-16_433c58b0-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-15_3cc0f3b4-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-14_3111881b-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-13_02fe154d-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-12_e0981896-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-11_8482360a-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-10_c8ed1b36-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-9_aa1a93b5-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-8_5b0b254a-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/arthakhabar. com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/photo-7_b643a0f3-1024x576. jpg\" class=\"aligncenter size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>.
