In the slow process of implementing development projects, a large amount of allocation has been cut in the main Annual Development Programme, or ADP, of the current fiscal year.
The amount has been reduced by Tk 4.9 billion, which is 18.49 per cent of the total allocation.
The interim government has reduced the Tk 2.65 trillion ADP for the 2024-25 fiscal year, set by the ousted Awami League government, and revised it to Tk 2.16 trillion.
The largest reduction has been made in the health and education sectors.
On Monday, the National Economic Council, or NEC, meeting at the Planning Commission in Dhaka’s Agargaon approved the revised ADP, or RADP, by reducing the original ADP.
The meeting was presided over by Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus.
Planning Advisor Wahiduddin Mahmud presented this information after the meeting.বিস্তারিত
