Kathmandu. CPN-UML General Secretary Shankar Pokharel has raised questions regarding the current government's duplicitous nature regarding foreign loans. He says that those who criticized foreign loans in the past are now taking large amounts of loans after coming to power.
Pokharel on Facebook on Tuesday admitted that taking foreign loans for sustainable infrastructure development is both a necessity and a necessity for Nepal. However, he mentioned that those who opposed the previous government taking loans are now taking loans without giving a clear policy and priority in the parliament.
