Legal issues
In May 2025, Mohan Bahadur Basnet was named in a corruption case filed by the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) concerning the procurement of the Teramox telecom monitoring system. The CIAA alleged that the project was advanced without proper evaluation, resulting in a loss of Rs 3.22 billion. Following the charges, Basnet was automatically suspended from Parliament in accordance with the Constitution of Nepal. In June 2025, Basnet was granted bail by the Special Court in Kathmandu for NPR 25 lakh despite the ongoing investigation into the Teramux case. ==References==
