Balendra Shah administration governance and media relations
Overview
The administration led by Prime Minister Balendra Shah has released a three-month progress report detailing 384 decisions made across various cabinet and committee meetings. The report noted significant capital expenditure progress and the establishment of a task force aimed at improving service delivery and reducing corruption.
Recent developments have highlighted tensions regarding media engagement and security protocols. The Prime Minister has increasingly utilized social media to address the nation, bypassing traditional press channels. Furthermore, a private trip to Mustang and Pokhara has drawn criticism from the Federation of Nepali Journalists following allegations that security personnel attempted to prevent a journalist from filming the Prime Minister’s movements. The trip also faced scrutiny due to a lack of coordination with local district administrations and the Prime Minister’s decision to avoid interacting with a local women’s group.
