It is a long withstanding dream of Nepalese to see a prosperous and developed Nepal. Though Nepal has undergone many political transitions the ultimate goal of it all is the prosperity of Nepal. To accomplish this there need to be core areas to focus on by the state.
Although Nepal is an agricultural country, it has failed in terms of self-dependency on food products. Subsistence and traditional farming methods have lowered production. Nepal has to import large amounts of food products from other countries. Agriculture has to be modernized and commercialized to create a market and boost up production. The surplus food products can be exported for foreign currency.
Infrastructure is one of the primary needs for the development of the country. Construction of road networks to remote areas will help create the domestic market and increase the development and economic activities of that area. Road networks connecting other countries will ease the import-export activities of the two countries. Construction of suspension bridges and bridges will allow alternative means for trade and travel between different areas. Construction of airports also helps in boosting domestic and international tourists increasing the economic growth of our country.
It is essential that we learn to utilize our natural resources for creating products within our own country. This is possible by establishing more industries. Manpower and natural resources are utilized in industries to manufacture different things for domestic consumption and export. Once Nepal is self-reliant in majority of products earning huge amounts of money from exports then it can be an economically strong country.
If we can prioritize agriculture, industry and infrastructure sectors then Nepal will surely embark on the path to development. So it's high time that the state starts taking concrete actions for this purpose. Then we can see a prosperous and developed Nepal in our lifetime.
