KATHMANDU: It has been noted that institutional governance and robust human resource was indispensable for attaining higher economic growth rates in the present unfavorable situation.

Spokesperson of the Nepal Rastra Bank Dr Gunakar Bhatta highlighted the importance of institutional governance to drive the economy to right path.
