Kathmandu. The Nepali Congress has said that it will implement the national commitment to make a net zero emission nation by 2045 by making structural reforms in energy, transport, industry and infrastructure sectors.

Accordingly, the National Determined Contribution (NDC) and Adaptation Plan were prepared.
In the pubic pledge for the House of Representatives election to be held on February 21, the Congress has mentioned that it will ensure the necessary financial resources, technology, institutional capacity and a clear action plan to transform the declared commitment into results. It is also aimed to significantly increase the use of clean and renewable energy in the energy and industrial and household sectors.
Congress has put forward a plan to reduce the impact of climate change and pollution on public health and livelihood through environment and forest protection, reduction of carbon emissions, promotion of green economy and disaster preparedness.
