Prime Minister Balen Shah has called an emergency Cabinet meeting to address urgent financial appointments and critical policy matters.
According to the Prime Minister’s Secretariat, the meeting is scheduled for 1 PM today. Calling a session outside the regular timetable suggests the government is moving quickly to handle time-sensitive issues.
Officials say the emergency Cabinet meeting is likely to focus on the appointment of a Deputy Governor at Nepal Rastra Bank, along with other important decisions. The leadership of the central bank has been under close attention in recent weeks, as authorities look to maintain stability in monetary policy and financial governance.
Cabinet meetings are usually held twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays. However, sessions called on other days are considered emergency Cabinet meetings, typically reserved for urgent decisions that cannot wait for the regular schedule.
The move reflects the government’s intent to speed up decision-making, especially in areas related to economic management and institutional leadership. It also signals growing urgency around key financial positions that play a crucial role in the country’s economic direction.
The outcome of this emergency Cabinet meeting is expected to shape major financial appointments and could influence Nepal’s economic stability in the coming weeks.
