KATHMANDU, Jan 23:  The general public has not been vaccinated against COVID-19. The number of deaths due to the lack of treatment is also significant. The construction of development infrastructure including roads and irrigation has not gained momentum. But the government is preparing to spend around Rs 240 million on the decoration of the ministers’ quarters alone. The political leadership was criticized for starting new construction while the country already had ministerial quarters. Amid criticism from the general public, the government is constructing 27 minister quarters in Bhaisepati of Lalitpur at a cost of Rs 1.3 billion.
