On financial matters, the government reported a preliminary retirement of Rs 1.5 trillion in public loans during the financial year 25, which has reduced the proportion of GDP from 75 % in the financial year 23. This development indicates an important milestone in financial stability and indicates the administration’s commitment to the responsible loan management.
