Eight district presidents of Nepali Congress from Gandaki Province have demanded the province government to prioritize health sector in the forthcoming budget.
The district presidents and secretaries met with Chief Minister Krishna Chandra Nepali Pokhrel on Monday and stressed the need of guaranteeing vaccination against COVID-19, according NC spokesperson at Kaski, Nabin Sigdel. Similarly, most affected areas due to the pandemic could be other priorities, he added.
