Why It Matters
Recurrent expenditure (salaries, allowances, operations) is 59.8% of Nepal's Rs. 2,124.34 billion budget. Every rupee cut from redundant structures is one more rupee available for roads, hospitals, and irrigation. The budget also eliminates unnecessary training allowances, camera funds, and official benefits that inflated administrative costs.
✅ Merits

Fewer ministries = faster inter-agency coordination
Signals fiscal discipline to donors and lenders
⚠️ Challenges
Staff redeployment from abolished entities is complex
