Tackling Budget Misuse

Aryal also criticized the current allocation system. He said politicians often influence fund distribution instead of prioritizing need. “Budgeting for projects already under local and provincial governments, and spreading funds across non-productive sectors to satisfy party loyalists, must stop,” he stated.

Additionally, he urged the government to adopt balanced and reform-oriented policies. These include tax reforms, cutting non-essential spending, and investing public debt in productive sectors.

“Furthermore, revenue growth must come with better taxation policies. Expenditures must be managed wisely to meet Nepal’s development goals,” Aryal concluded, linking his recommendations to Nepal budget priorities.
