Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba has said that the role of the local level should be sensitive and accountable as the government is close to the people.
Addressing the sixth foundation day of Godavari Municipality of Lalitpur and the inauguration ceremony of the administrative building of the municipality on Friday, he said that the constitution along with the federal system of government has given various important rights and responsibilities to the local level in the field of development and service delivery.
Prime Minister Deuba said, “Since the government is close to the people at the local level, it is natural for this government to have high expectations of the people. Despite the limited resources, the local government should be able to fulfill its responsibility and accountability to the people by fulfilling the expectations and sentiments of the people. ” He said that the main duty of the local level was to ensure good governance among the people by completing the work of the people in a speedy manner without any hassle as the work done by the local government and the services provided by the local government would have a direct and immediate effect on the people.
He said that he has been informed that the municipality has taken all possible initiatives to provide quality services in a timely manner from the construction of physical infrastructure for the welfare of the people in the city. Stating that the development work done by the municipality and the improvement done in the service delivery are issues of direct concern to the people, Prime Minister Deuba said, "It is very important to ensure transparency, quality and accountability in the work. Similarly, it is essential to inform the citizens about the work done. I would also like to congratulate Godavari Municipality for publishing a magazine called 'Godavari' for that. ”
Stating that the country is now on a journey of economic prosperity, social transformation and building an egalitarian society through a democratic republican system of governance after overcoming a long political transition, he said that this journey should be completed soon and the destination should not be delayed. Prime Minister Deuba stressed that the country is now on the verge of local level elections and in electing people's representatives using their votes in the upcoming election, the work done in the past and the work done in the interest of the people should be the main basis for choosing people's representatives.
Highly praising the people's representatives who have been at the forefront of the Corona epidemic despite the health of themselves and their families, Prime Minister Deuba, despite being elected from a political party, has been able to move forward inclusively and provide equal access to development and service delivery to all without discrimination. He said that this was a virtue.
