Chief Secretary Govinda Bahadur Karki chaired a meeting of government secretaries on Monday, July 20, which resulted in a decision on a 22-point administrative reform agenda. These reforms are intended to streamline the administrative system and improve public service delivery.
Key decisions include reviewing public holidays by forming a task force, implementing a "one-door service" system for high-footfall offices like land revenue and survey offices to reduce middlemen, and prioritizing tasks to remove Nepal from the anti-money laundering "grey-list". The meeting also decided to intensify the process of clearing arrears, maintain financial discipline, and keep all government agencies on high alert for effective management of monsoon-induced disasters or epidemics.
