KABUL (Pajhwok): The Wolesi Jirga on Monday approved the thrice-revised draft budget for 2021 fiscal year by a majority of votes.
The lower house had twice rejected the draft budget for 1400 solar year over elimination of 1,100 provincial projects and a surge in funds for government’s codes.
However, today the draft was presented to the Wolesi Jirga session and was approved by a majority of votes.
Mir Afghan Safi, who heads the Budget Finance Commission, briefed lawmakers on the third draft for 1400 solar year, saying the government had accommodated most of the house’s demands . . .
