Art. 287 · Part 32

Government Contracts

सरकारी सम्झौता
💡Highlight any phrase below and we'll explain what it means.
Original Text

All contracts made by the Government of Nepal shall be expressed as made in the name of the Government of Nepal. Executive authority extends to making contracts.

💡 Plain Language Explanation

All government contracts — construction projects, service agreements, procurement deals — must be formally made in the name of \'Government of Nepal.\' This isn\'t just bureaucracy; it means contracts are the state\'s obligation, not any individual minister\'s. When governments change, contracts survive because they\'re bound to the institution, not the person.

🇳🇵 नेपाली व्याख्या

सरकारी सम्झौता \'नेपाल सरकार\' को नाममा हुन्छ — व्यक्तिगत मन्त्रीको नाममा होइन। सरकार बदलिए पनि सम्झौता कायम।

Good Aspects

Institutional contracting provides legal certainty for domestic and foreign partners.

⚠️ Concerns

Formal requirements can slow procurement; informal deals sometimes bypass proper contracting.
