Allo's budget in the bag!

Soon after, all the members of the Council of Ministers went to the Federal Parliament House New Baneshwar to read the budget. First the Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal and then the Deputy Prime Minister and Ministers in turn entered the courtyard of the Parliament House. Journalists were waiting there to take pictures of the finance minister carrying the budget.

At the same time, journalists took pictures when the Minister of Finance was going to the joint meeting of both houses of the Federal Parliament with a bag containing the budget book. Earlier finance ministers used to keep the budget booklet in a 'briefcase' or a foreign made leather bag and wrap it with a red ribbon. However, this time, a different scene was seen. Finance Minister Pun wrapped a bag made of Nepali products with a red ribbon from the outside and brought the budget book in the same bag.

Finance Minister Pun has been saying that he will give innovation in the budget. At that time, it was estimated that the sense of novelty was trying to be given from the budget carrying bag. Stakeholders were talking in the Parliament building saying that they are going to bring a budget to promote indigenous production.

According to the Finance Minister's Secretariat, a bag made in Nepal is used to keep the budget. This time Finance Minister Pun used cloth bags made in Nepal to encourage domestic production, according to his secretariat. According to the Finance Minister's Secretariat, bags of aloe made from Nepali products were bought from Thamel, a tourist spot in Kathmandu, on Tuesday morning. The budget for the next financial year has been presented in the Parliament by keeping it in a bag made of aloe. Finance Minister Pun made a budget speech for about 1 hour and 50 minutes.
