He expressed his belief that the people’s representatives, government employees and the locals of Myagde would join hands in materializing the plan of making Myagde prosperous and developed.
The President urged the State’s local units to remain steadfast towards fulfilling the people’s aspirations, stressing that the local level is the important basic structure of the republic Nepal established as per the constitutional system.
He called on the people’s representatives at the local level to be accountable to the people. President Paudel said that the more people-oriented, public-welfare, and responsive the local government and representatives are, the more they will be able to fulfill the aspirations and needs of the local people, and the more the goals envisioned by our governance system will be realized.
Calling upon the general public to work and not to lose hope, he said urged them to rest assured that the country is gradually moving ahead on the path of progress owing to the development possibilities.
