Similarly, the Council of Ministers decided to add two women members in the public corporation advisory committee to make it more effective and inclusive.

Likewise, Secretary Suresh Acharya, who is currently working at the Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers (OPMCM), has been transferred at the Ministry of Urban Development while Joint-Secretary Ram Adhar Shah would replace Acharya at the OPMCM after his promotion to the post of secretary.
