Nepal ex-PM faces corruption charges over Patanjali land scam
Nepal's authorities charged former Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal with corruption and demanded 186-million Nepali rupees over a land misappropriation case linked to Patanjali Yogpeeth-Nepal. Madhav had allegedly waived land ceiling law and allowed Patanjali to purchase land 15 years ago, which was later swapped with other land or sold at a higher price, causing a loss to the nation.
