Finance Minister Claims Unprecedented Achievements in Government's First 100 Days

Kathmandu. Finance Minister Dr. Swarnim Wagle has claimed that the government has done unprecedented work in its first 100 days. He made this assertion on Tuesday while responding to questions raised by MPs during the discussion on the budget allocation for his ministry in the National Assembly meeting.

Minister Wagle argued that completing 87.2 percent of the tasks set by the government in 100 points is in itself an unprecedented achievement. While clarifying that some matters, including legislation, were not solely under the government's control and thus could not progress as expected, he stated that the Ministry of Finance has completed all its assigned tasks out of the 100 points.

Speaking in the house, Finance Minister Wagle said, 'The issue of 100 days has come up. As I have already stated – in the government's internal assessment, 87.2 percent of the programs have been completed. This might be unprecedented in itself. The government is honestly striving to meet the very complex criteria it has set for itself. Some tasks are ongoing. Matters like presenting bills are not solely under our control, and we are conscious of moving them forward. The Ministry of Finance has completed all the tasks mentioned in the 100 points.'

Finance Minister Wagle also mentioned that the government is working with a focus on the welfare of the country and its people in accordance with the promises and commitments made to the public before the election.
