Prime Minister Balen Instructs Staff to Embrace Government’s Spirit, Avoid Any Delays

March 26, Kathmandu. Newly appointed Prime Minister Balen Shah has directed government employees not to delay work under any pretext.

Shortly after taking the oath on Friday and assuming office at the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers’ office, he urged the staff to embrace the spirit of his government.

Reminding employees that his government is strong enough to amend any rules and regulations if necessary, he explicitly instructed them not to make excuses, a secretary revealed.

“Just as we have formed the government and are trying to move forward, you must also adopt the same spirit,” the secretary quoted Prime Minister Shah as saying. “When it comes to necessary changes in rules and laws, we can bring about these changes without any excuses. Work without excuses.”

He also clearly instructed the employees not to be late in performing their duties for any reason. “There should be no delays citing any reasons,” Balen emphasized.

The briefing held with government employees and newly appointed ministers was brief.

“He spoke for only about five minutes while giving the instructions; we just listened,” the secretary added.
