Aasandha Costs Over Budget Again, This Year by 120 Percent

The 2023 Statement of Fiscal Constraints projects Aasandha spending will reach MVR 2.3 billion by the end of the year, 120 percent above the MVR 1 billion budget allocation. The Ministry of Finance said the 2024 budget includes cost-cutting measures, while price capping and bulk procurement measures have failed to control expenditure.
