Budget by mid-November at any cost: Minister

GAJURI, Dhading, Nov 6: Minister for Finance, Surendra Pandey reiterated that the government will bring budget within mid November at any rate, considering the worsening economic condition of the country.



Minister Pandey said the farmers here could raise five goats in every family instead of importing the goats worth Rs 15 billion from India.[break]



Similarly, they can also begin commercial farming on flower, he suggested.



Minister Pandey gave such suggestion to the locals here while speaking at a greetings-exchange programme organized by the transport workers on the occasion of the Tihar festival.



The government was holding talks with the industrialists about the remuneration of the workers in industries, he informed.



Local leaders of the CPN-UML had expressed greetings at the programme.



Minister Pandey also inspected an Agriculture Radio (101.5 MHz) at Kebalpur VDC following the programme.
