Start preparation to bring budget: Prachanda tells FM Pun

   
  

THT ONLINE

KATHMANDU: While two big opposition parties-- Nepali Congress and CPN-UML-- have been pressing the Maoist-led incumbent government to pave way for a national unity government before talking about the fiscal budget, Caretaker Finance Minister Barshaman Pun has been suggested by Maoist Chairman Pusha Kamal Dahal to commence the administrative process to bring a full-fledged budget.

Pun who reached Dahal’s residence at Lazimapt on Saturday morning, along with Finance Secretary Krishna Hari Banskota, has been advised by the former Prime Minister Dahal to make preparations in releasing a full-fledged budget of around Rs 429 billion.

Earlier, when Pun consulted top leaders of the opposition parties to bring budget through ordinance, he was advised by UML Chairman Jhala Nath Khanal and NC President Sushil Koirala that the budget is possible only after the political consensus, citing that caretaker government owns no right to bring a full-fledged budget.

It seems the budget has once again become the bargaining chip for big guns.

Just because the bitches of the NC and CPN-UML open their mouths does not mean that anybody in the current government has to listen to them. Instead, Harry Banskota has to go ask them if he can bring a budget? The hell with that! Just get Bhattrai's approval and do it! Leave the bitches of the the NC and CPN-UML mumbling onto their dhalbhat... It would be nice to have consensus but if the other parties are just screeching over-heated monkey bitches, then just ignore them and get on wwith the business of ruling the country. Sane, compassionate people don't have to listen to insane, power-hungry and greedily corrupt ones! Suraj Rajbhandhari, Putali Sadak, Kathmandu
