KATHMANDU, SEPTEMBER 22
Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba has expressed hope that activities of social welfare would contribute to the development and elevation of suppressed and backward communities in the society.
Social service being one of the means of bringing suppressed and helpless communities to the mainstream of development could carry out social transformation, according to the PM.
In his address to the main celebration of the 43rd Social Service Day here today, the head-of-the-state underlined the need of collaborative efforts between the government and non- government organisations to achieve the sustainable development goals and the periodic goals.
He took time to insist on the proper management and transparency of investment, and on actively mobilising social organisations in the areas of development priorities.
Stating that performance of social organisations should be based on the delivery approach, he said the government was cooperating with the Social Security Council towards that end.
Acknowledging the role of the Council in serving its goals of social welfare, the Prime Minister said it was necessary to make social organisations accountable to the nation and the society.
