Important government offices in Banke have fallen short of budget due to the failure to pass the annual budget from the parliament, reports RSS.
The office of the comptroller in Banke has blocked budget release for offices like district public health office, Bheri zonal hospital, Nepal Army, Armed Police Force, Nepal Police, District Education Office and so on.
