KATHMANDU: Technical quality test, recently carried out by National Vigilance Center, has found the quality of work under 11 National Pride Projects unsatisfactory as they have failed to meet the quality standard deemed essential in such projects.
The Technical Audit Report of National Vigilance Center (NVC) found the performance of 11 national pride projects poor and below the standard.
The Annual Technical Audit Report (2018/19) submitted to Prime Minister K P Oli by NVC has stated that the report of poor performance has been forwarded to the concerned authority for further action.
