KATHMANDU: Education, Science and Technology Minister Dr. Mahabir Pun has said that Nepal cannot achieve real change unless corrupt and rotten leaders are removed from politics.

Through a Facebook post, he appealed to voters to elect competent, ethical, and determined young representatives in the upcoming elections.

He urged people to participate in an organized manner without disputes and to ensure a majority government of clean youth leaders.

Pun further said that only such leadership can reduce corruption, deliver good governance, make Nepal economically prosperous, prevent foreign meddling, and fulfill the dream of directly electing the president.
