Finance Minister Khanal took a decision to not implement the projects that are not included in the budget and lack adequate preparation. The projects with insignificant values would not be put into implementation. "Now, we are burdened to hold elections and address youths' demands. So, unnecessary budgets would be slashed," Minister Khanal reminded.
Suggestions of the high level economic reform commission would also be paid heed, according to Minister Khanal.
