PM Oli pledges to deliver good governance, curb corruption

A day after assuming the high office, Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has said his government will work to bring positive results in all walks of national life. PM Oli said the new administration will work to make a noticeable impact on areas such as corruption control, development, construction work and public service delivery.

Speaking during a program that the CPN-UML’s Sindhupalchok district committee had organized at the PM’s official residence in Baluwatar on Tuesday, Oli said his government will focus on “good governance and development, corruption control/elimination and development”.
The government will work to remove difficulties facing the people in relation to public service delivery, he said, requesting all people to be confident that the three sectors—social, development and administration—will work in tandem to serve them. 

The government has taken the losses resulting from floods, landslides and natural disasters seriously, he said, adding that it is making arrangements for the distribution of relief materials.

The newly-formed Cabinet has decided to provide relief to the families of individuals missing for 10 days in natural disasters, including landslides, on a par with aid provided to the families of those deceased in the disasters. 

“Governments keep coming and going. But this change of guard has given rise to new hope and trust. The whole country is hopeful that good governance and development will follow. Also people are hopeful of getting the services and facilities easily,” Oli added.

PM Oli and his Cabinet took the oath of office and secrecy at Sheetal Niwas on Monday after his communist party, the CPN-UML, forged a coalition with the center-left Nepali Congress. This is Oli’s fourth term as PM.
