At an interaction ‘Infrastructure Reporting: Media’s Role in Shaping the Narrative’ jointly organised by Society of Economic Journalists Nepal and Policy Entrepreneurs Inc here today, infrastructure expert Kamal Pandey said it was due to political interference that has been impeding the timely completion of the project.
