Money laundering is taken as a serious issue, while equal attention is paid to the revenue sector which needs correction and reform. All parties' support and cooperation are required for the reform, he stressed.

He further viewed all sides' cooperation as essential to make successful the prosperity drive. PM Dahal was of the view that he felt the government and people were connected and together at present.

Responding to the queries of the lawmakers, the PM stated that the policies and programs document has outlined the government's policy-level priorities, and other detailed programs would be addressed through the budget.
The policies and programs have translated the national aspirations and have forwarded concrete programs with firm determinations in making a just Nepal by safeguarding national sovereignty, territorial indivisibility, and national interests.
Furthermore, the PM argued that the policies and programs have incorporated the issues to strengthen federalism, revive the economy, modernize and commercialize agriculture, promote the industrial sector, and scale up production and employment.
