Comment:  Karnali provincial government has recorded poor financial progress for the current fiscal year as in the past fiscal years. Moreover, the government generates little income in comparison to its expenses. Thus the provincial government has to improve its budgetary process i.e. formulation, implementation monitoring, and evaluation.
