A group of lawmakers, economists, industrialists, businesspersons and journalists has given suggestions for the upcoming budget.
At a pre-budget session organised here Thursday in the central capital by the Finance Committee of the House of Representatives, they submitted a 61-point recommendation letter related to financial activities to the committee.
The committee altered the previous practice of seeking verbal recommendations from experts on budget by collecting written ones. The recommendations would be submitted to the government to facilitate budget-making and for the development of the financial sector of the country, said Krishna Prasad Dahal, president of the committee.
The meeting attendants also called for the upcoming budget to focus on materialising the goal of ‘Prosperous Nepal, Happy Nepali’ and emphasize domestic production by utilising available resources. They recommended strengthening and stabilizing economy and creating job opportunities.
