AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Education Equity: Bhutan’s government has allocated Nu 237.5 million to support Class 12 Arts students affected by the Royal University of Bhutan’s sudden reduction/removal of Arts courses in 2022–2023, after concerns that scholarships and seat access favored Science streams. Heritage & Museums: The Department of Culture and Dzongkha Development is drafting unified national guidelines for establishing and managing museums and heritage galleries, with a workshop covering governance, accessibility, collections, visitor engagement, and long-term sustainability. Climate-Resilient Infrastructure: In the National Assembly, MoIT faced questions on whether infrastructure planning and design are strong enough for flash floods, landslides, and recurring failures; MoIT also clarified geotechnical soil testing rules under the Thimphu Structure Plan to improve safety in Bhutan’s high seismic risk context. Urban Flood Control: MoIT defended Thimphu stormwater and roadside drainage upgrades as master-plan based and climate-ready, aiming to cut recurring street flooding. Hydropower Progress: MPs pressed for transparency on the Nyera Amari I & II Integrated Hydropower Project, with DPR work reported underway and concerns over shifting timelines. Disaster Response Funding: MoIT allocated Nu 622 million for monsoon restoration and disaster response, citing rising roadblock incidents nationwide. Rural Tech & Livelihoods: Tarayana’s 20th Annual Fair highlighted climate-resilient rural initiatives and technology-linked support for community livelihoods.
