AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Hindu Kush Himalaya Monsoon Watch: ICIMOD says 2026 monsoon may be below normal for Bhutan, India, Nepal and Pakistan, but disaster risk stays high as short bursts of intense rain, heat and water stress can still trigger flash floods and landslides. Parliament Oversight: Bhutan’s Public Accounts Committee flags unresolved audit irregularities worth over Nu 2.36bn from the past 15 years, including major lapses tied to the Bhutan Integrated Taxation System (BITS 1.0). Local Governance: Government confirms drayangs will not reopen, citing safety and worker welfare concerns after the industry’s closure in 2022. Regional Finance: India and Nepal go live with a UPI–NPI peer-to-peer remittance link for instant cross-border transfers, with Bhutan noted as part of UPI’s wider acceptance footprint. Diplomacy: India appoints Rudra Gaurav Shresth as its next Ambassador to Türkiye; he has served in missions including Bhutan. Global Peace Index: Bhutan ranks as the most peaceful in South Asia and 16th globally in GPI 2026, while Afghanistan remains the least peaceful in the region.
