KATHMANDU: Addressing the second day session of the First Quarterly Review of Approved Programmes and Budget for Fiscal Year 2018/19 here today, Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli remarked that every sector should move a step forward every day with constructive work. “New and constructive works should be carried out in every sector each day. If all sectors moved ahead in a constructive way, Nepal moves one step forward each day,” he said. The Prime Minister also directed the ministers and government employees to prioritise development works rather than wasting time in policy, meetings, discussions and consultations while stating that they should change their working style. Moreover, PM Oli instructed the employees to not add burden on the state coffers by taking allowance for meetings held during office hours, urging for austerity to save the state treasury from exploitation. He also queried about the Nepal Airlines Corporation’s preparations to fly its wide-body aircraft and the reasons behind losses.
