The budget of the Ministry of Urban Development has been increased in a big way. As a result, the budget may have been increased by keeping piecemeal plans like in the current financial year, according to the former secretaries. In the current financial year, there are only about 100 schemes of 1 lakh under the ministry. Former Secretary Arjunjung Thapa said that there is a risk that the same fate will be repeated in the next financial year as well.

"Now it is said that small plans will not be kept in the budget of the union," he said. 92.63 billion rupees have been allocated for this ministry in the current year. But for the next year, the budget has been increased to 1 trillion 18 billion rupees. Which is 25 billion 37 million rupees more than the current year.

Similarly, although the number of new cities has been increased to 54, 10 cities have been prioritized in the next year's budget. It is mentioned in the budget statement that 1 billion rupees have been allocated for 10 new cities under construction under Madhyapahari highway. Due to the lack of sufficient budget, the construction work of the new city project has not been able to accelerate. It is mentioned in the budget that the concept of utility corridor will be implemented to improve the beauty and quality of basic services of major cities including Kathmandu Valley.

The construction of Jaharsingh Pauwa Stadium and Ganeshman Singh Park in Shankharapur, Kathmandu and Madan Bhandari Multi-Purpose Park in Budhanilkanth-Gokarneshwar will be started from next year. It is mentioned in the budget that an international level exhibition hall will be constructed at Bhanu Sahitya Udyan and Bhrikutimandap at Chundi Ramgha in Tanahun. Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Bishnu Paudel said that a budget of 1 billion rupees has been allocated to complete 129 administrative buildings under construction at the local level. It is mentioned in the budget statement that the construction of the Federal Parliament and the Supreme Court building will be completed in the coming year and the archeologically important Shital Niwas, Harihar Bhavan, Shrimahal and gallery meeting will be reconstructed.

In partnership with the local level and the private sector, a waste processing center with modern technology will be established to produce energy, fertilizer, briquettes and other materials. Finance Minister Paudel said that necessary infrastructure will be built to clean the rivers of the valley, including Bagmati, and corridor roads will be expanded in the valley, so 3.42 billion budget has been allocated. 8.90 billion rupees have been allocated for the construction of local bridges and suspension bridges. The City Development Fund will be restructured and the investment capacity will be increased and the Tarai Madhesh prosperity and local infrastructure support program will be continued. A budget of Rs 1.2 billion has been allocated for that.

Former Secretary Maniram Gelal said that good programs have come under the Ministry of Urban Development this time. "There was no big exhibition hall, it is good to build it in Bhrikutimandap, it is said to build a garbage processing center in collaboration with the local level and the private sector, it was very important," he said, "but for a new city, sufficient budget is needed, but it is not there." 

Now the union is divided and small projects should not be kept in the budget, he said. "It is understood that this year's budget of the association has been cut down on small projects," he said, "If it is kept, it will be wrong, the association should not work on small projects worth 40-50 million anymore, such projects should be sent to the provincial and local levels."

One thousand houses will be built in the next financial year under Janata Awas program. Similarly, 75 crore rupees have been allocated to replace the thatched roofs of 5,000 houses under safe civilian housing. Finance Minister Paudel claims that 727 kilometers of urban and rural roads will be paved and upgraded, 46 local road bridges and 200 suspension bridges will be completed in the financial year 2082/83.
