Nepal Development Update : Reforms to Accelerate Public Investment

Economics & Development Published 2025 Verification Pending

Overview & Synopsis

Nepal experienced its worst unrest in decades on September 8 and 9, 2025. A social media ban triggered protest against corruption, and this was followed by widespread unrest causing significant human and economic losses. The damage to public and private infrastructure is still being assessed. On September 9, Nepal’s Prime Minister resigned, and an interim administration was appointed on September 12 to oversee the lower house parliamentary election scheduled for March 5, 2026. Nepal needs significant infrastructure investment to support growth, but this has hindered by weak execution of infrastructure projects. This special focus chapter of the NDU examines five critical bottlenecks in public investment management (PIM) across the project cycle at the federal level and provides recommendations to address these bottlenecks.
