Energy Minister Shrestha directs for advancing projects

Kathmandu, Sept 30: Minister for Energy, Water Resource and Irrigation, Biraj Bhakta Shrestha, has directed the subordinate agencies to give a pace to enforcement of annual budget and programmes. The Minister made such direction in the wake of little financial progress of the Ministry.

Two months have passed since the new fiscal year but the budget spending is disappointing and too traditional, so a clear action plan is needed to forward activities with timely contracting and bidding.
