Budget has been allocated to new
projects and programs without adequate
study and analysis during these eight
years. This has led to misuse of funds as
there is spending through various heads
under the same agency. Budget allocation
has been made even after the completion
of the project. It has been observed that
resources are misused as there are several
agencies performing the same task. The
financial assistance and grants indicators
are being used by different agencies and
it has been often the case that grant or
assistance has been channeled from more
than one agency for the same purpose.
Considering these issues, it is imperative
to probe the government budget

carry out reforms. Therefore, I have

management of water supply.
• With the initiation of Voluntary Retirement Scheme for the employees working in
the Kathmandu Valley Water Supply Limited, a total of 289 employees have taken

Problems and Challenges

• As various types of investments have been made by other government agencies,


Ministries and Departments and Donor's grants in those areas, groups, institutions
and projects where the Town Development Fund provide technical and financial
assistance, the Fund's loan/grant could not be invested in those areas.
• Uniformity could not be brought in the investment policy, implementation policy,
operation and maintenance policy and service charge policy in the urban service and
facility.
• Due to the absence of responsible people's representatives for a long time, local
bodies could not be able to determine investment priority.
• The Town Development Fund is also providing soft loan in the social infrastructure
areas (sewerage, roads, park and drinking water) of the municipalities. However,
other government agencies are also providing grant investment in income oriented
programs.
• Separate revolving fund has been established in the Department of Urban
Development and Building Construction for land development and housing,
separate reserve fund has been established under the Ministry of Local
Development, but TDF's loan investment could not be co-financed with the grant
107
under the LGCDP program. However, the Fund is facing the problem in loan
investment as the implementation of the projects under the Town Development
Fund loan have to compete with the grant projects directly provided to the
municipalities from those funds.
• Uniformity could not be maintained in the investments (loan and grant) to be made
in the municipalities due to the absence of "National Urban Infrastructure
Investment Policy".
• In the case of Authorized Bagmati Civilization Integrated Development Committee,
the problem of providing compensation, lack of human resources, absence of
detailed engineering report, problem in coordination with the stakeholders,
prevailing social and political condition and settlement of the landless people at
riverbanks have remained as challenges.
• Much time has to be devoted than necessary in the community mobilization due to
the need of the situation to work even during festivals and rainy season as the works
could not be performed according to the time specified in the project cycle because
of the delays in the initial phase of project implementation.
• Lack of coordination has been witnessed among the various government agencies,
non-governmental organizations and private sector entities working in the area of
drinking water and sanitation.
• Project implementation has been delayed due to the rise in market price of non-local
materials.
• There are also situations like controversies on the source of drinking water and
preparation of cost estimate for finding another source due to drying of the current
source of drinking water.
• There have also been delays in the registration of water supply user and sanitation
committees.
• Three agencies, including Directorate for Project Implementation, Kathmandu
Valley Water Supply Limited and Kathmandu Valley Water Supply Management
Board have to implement projects under the Budget Head No. 87-4-461 for the loan
investment in Kathmandu Valley Water Supply Management Board. This has
created the problem for allocating necessary budget for these three agencies. Due to
this main reason, annual budget and program could not be approved on time.

Ways to address the problems

• As the need for preparation and implementation of a "National Urban Infrastructure


Investment Policy" is felt in order to provide clear guidelines for investment to be
made in urban area and increase investment in urban infrastructure proportionate to
economic and population growth, this has to be initiated.

108
• A policy of effectively investing loan/grant to be received from the donors for urban
development from one door should be formulated by the Government of Nepal.
• The tasks of project management and design supervision will also be performed by
the consultants from this fiscal year. They will prepare detailed engineering report
as well.
• Integrated efforts need to be made by the stakeholder agencies of the State (Ministry
of Finance, Ministry of Land Reform and Management, Ministry of Physical
Planning and Works and the Committee) for providing the compensation.
• Umbrella committee and high level committee established for coordination should
be activated.
• All the political parties and the government should be committed towards
rehabilitating the real landless people by identifying the landless people of the
riverbanks.
• In the case of the projects to be implemented by selection, efforts are underway for
the completion of the tasks in a qualitative way by implementing them according to
the project cycle.
• Problem has also been experienced for the selection of program due to the
assignment of responsibilities to three bodies for operating drinking water programs
in the Kathmandu Valley as well as managing its property and constructing the
capital related works. Due to this, clear policy related to the tasks of these three
bodies have been prepared and implemented from the current fiscal year. If separate
budget heads could be made for the three bodies to address the problem, it would be
easy to manage.

Problems related to Program Implementation


• There have been difficulties in operating and implementing program due to damage
caused in the physical infrastructure of various Districts Forest Officers.
• Problem of illegal hunting still exist in National Park; Wildlife Conservation and
Buffer Zone Area. The arms for the control of illegal poaching of wildlife and forest
resources have turned into obsolete and fresh areas have not yet realized.
• Problems of deforestation and encroachment of forest areas (88000 hectors) still
existing as usual in the past. Special control measures adopted have not been
effective due to the policy of settling down enancipated Kamaiya and landless
people (Sukumbasi) in the same encroached forest area.
• There has been a difficulty to effectively implement the programs due to lack of
sufficient budget for the maintenance and new procurement of vehicles and
weapons.
• Regulation lacks provision to treat Armed Forestry Guard, Hattisar Personnel and
Game Scouts as technical services. There has been a difficulty in recruitment due to
similar treatment between non-class Armed Forestry Guard, Hattisar Personnel and
Game Scouts and other office attendants.

191
• The Ministry of Law Justice to legislate required laws to conserve through
registering of indigenous biodiversity. Implementation is difficult due to lack of
law.
• Difficulty in the operation of the fund deposited in Forest Development Fund.
• Ambiguity and different operating procedure between this Ministry and Ministry of
local Development have caused difficulties in the collection and sale of stone,
concrete and sands.
• 50 thousand hectors of forest have been ruined last year due to fire. The same
problem still looming large this year. Effective controlling measures have not been
possible due to lack of sufficient budget.

Different Resources Behind the Under Performance of Ministry


• Nepal Fine Art Academy and Nepal Music and Dance Academy were formed but,
no activities were carried out due to lack of required budget.
• Poor coordination between the concerned institution to regulate building
construction as per the code and standard set for the protected and World Heritage
Areas, the intension of people to construct huge and modern building in those area
that make conservation and promotion activity more cumbersome.
• Poor awareness in local people, non-government organization and local bodies.
• Conservation and Renovation needs huge budget, but government's allocation is
insufficient.
• Property rights are being protected due to poor awareness and coordination between
the stakeholders.
• Public procurement Act is not suitable to award contract for the renovation and
conservation works to the experienced and skillful contractors.
• Different Jatras, festivals and practices being observed by the different ethnic
communities, Dalits and religions are not conserved due to lack of sufficient budget.

2 Repair and Maintenance of Roads 719 Km
3 Construction of Suspension Bridges 129 units
4 Fabrication of Suspension Bridges 107 units
5 Concreting of Suspension Bridges 68 units
6 Rope fencing of Suspension Bridges 62 units

C. Reason behind the under achievement of the target with the allocated
budget.
• Lack of elected representatives in the Local bodies since 2059 and current
mechanism with all political parties has not been effective in terms of function,
duties rights and accountabilities.
• Service delivery and development works have been negatively affected in local
level due to un-fulfillment of vacant seats of Village Development Committee
secretary.
• Lack of competent and sufficient technical manpower vis-à-vis workload.
• Developmental works facing obstacles due to lack of sufficient security in Terai
and Eastern Hilly Districts.
• Planning and Budgeting system has not been developed as approval of plans and
multiyear procurement plan there on.
• Constraints have been raised in implementation due to delay in approval of manual
and procedures stipulated in budget speech.
• Expected outputs have not been achieved due to time and cost overrun in program
implementation and inability to control the tendencies of selecting too many plans
with meager budget rather than selecting the plan as per resource at the disposal of
local bodies.
• Ad hoc attitude seen in the infrastructure construction has adversely impacted to the
environment and affected to the operation and sustainability of the projects.
• Desired achievements could not be attained due to weak macro management and
capability of local bodies.
• Under disbursement of the foreign resources due delay in submission of documents
from districts.
285
• Expected impact could not be achieved due to formulation of programs without
analyzing local potentials and development opportunities by the local bodies.
• Targets have not been achieved in foreign aided projects due to lack of matching
fund.
• Full devolution has not been implemented.

Healthy manpower is a must for overall development of the country. The universally

good health of Nepali citizen. With a view to guarantee of the fundamental rights of the
citizen to have a qualitative health services without any discrimination of geographical
area, class, gender, castes, religion, political ideology and economic and social condition in
the light of concept of social inclusion to reduce poverty and to contribute to the economic
prosperity by improving life standard of the people through increasing access to the
qualitative health services and through effective population management, different
