In which only 20.71 percent of the agreement has been progressed, it is mentioned in the report of the General Account that three road plans are incomplete.

In Section 59 of the Public Procurement Act, 2063, if the person who has entered into a procurement contract with a public body fails to work in accordance with the contract, or if the work is not progressed in accordance with the contract, the contract can be terminated and action can be taken.
