Sudurpashchim province is preparing to present its fiscal year budget during a provincial assembly meeting scheduled for Wednesday. Reports state that the assembly session has been called for 5 pm on Wednesday, following an agreement reached during a consultation committee meeting requested by the government. The administration has faced a prolonged period without an approved spending plan, leaving the province without funds for development works and service operations as nearly three months of the fiscal year have passed. A minister stated that the upcoming assembly session's agenda includes presenting the financial plan for the current year. Earlier, an estimated budget of thirty-seven billion seventy crore rupees had been introduced by a former minister, but disagreements over that financial plan caused it to fail and led to the formation of a new political alliance involving the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist) and the Nepal Communist Party.
