摘　　要：A pool of literatures in line with the notion of rationality projects that the rational people in bureaucratic organizations perform well.The other line of literatures on rationality cites different stories with limitations on rationality.In line with this,the objective of this paper is to investigate whether rationality really works in bureaucratic organizations in the neo-liberal economic terrain of Nepal.In doing so,the paper looks from critical juncture perspective of political paradigm shift and its impact on bureaucrats and bureaucratic organizations.The analysis reveals increased dependence of bureaucrats on domestic or foreign donors.Seemingly,the growing trend to be loyal towards them has replaced rationality,especially after the restoration of democracy in Nepal.The conclusion asks for right men in right place for timely delivery of goods and services to the public.
