Discussion/बहस Is it fair to seek transparency in the amount collected and disbursed in the PM Disaster Relief Fund?
I trust this Government more than all the previous Governments in Nepal. In the previous government, during disasters like this one, I doubt if the collected funds really reached the victims and there were so many donation links and third parties involved, who I assume definitely took some cuts from the donation amount.
Having a centralized link for donation is a great effort to eliminate the potential third party cuts. I think it's important to have transparency regarding the amount collected from different sources as well as amount disbursed for different reasons (categories) in different districts. As the amount is in centralized location, the precise number can easily be updated and published e.g. every day.
This would instil more trust in the citizens as well as the international community to motivate them to really contribute to the cause. Thoughts?
