The Prime Minister underscored that this achievement is crucial for infrastructure development and will play a vital role in achieving national goals by facilitating convenient and affordable travel, promoting geographical and democratic proximity, and maintaining balanced development across provinces.
He outlined the government’s commitment to prioritize the construction of tunnel passages, flyovers, and underpasses along national highways to establish advanced road connectivity.
Additionally, PM Dahal highlighted positive economic indicators, including improving revenue collection, reduced fuel imports due to the promotion of electric vehicles, increased cement and corrugated zinc sheet exports, rising tourist arrivals, and expansion in housing and apartment businesses outside Kathmandu Valley.
