In this year's budget it is told that
it will cerate employment, alleviate poverty and thus it allocates more
in education, health and agriculture sector. But relation between budget
allocation and poverty alleviation is not directly related.
It is more indirect. But without good governance how can we achieve it?
It is also appreciable that Finance Minister concentrated more for
educational sector especially female education. Education scholarship is
also appreciable. Agriculture subsidy especially doubling the fertilizer
subsidy is also appreciable. But the question is how the quality of
education will be achieved? If we can not make qualitative change in
primary and secondary education level, this extra allocation will not
bring any benefit. So, good governance is a prime factor for this.
Actually budget is a proposal. There always remains a gap among budget
proposal and actual implementation. So, it is not possible to evaluate
development with proposed budget only.
