Kathmandu, Aug 29: Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, Badri Prasad Pandey, has said a time has come to review whether the reports submitted by the investigation committees formed after aircraft crashes are factual or not.

He stressed that existing problems would be identified and measures for long-term solution would be adopted.
“Probe committees used to be formed after a plane crash. We will seek measures for long-term solution after identifying problems through review about how much the committees formed so far are based on truth and facts,” pointed out the Tourism Minister.
He further said, “The ministry will focus its attention towards finding solution after carrying out study why the previous reports have not been implemented if the reports were factual.”
