AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

SAFF Women’s Championship: India take on Bhutan in the second semi-final in Goa on Wednesday, aiming to reclaim the title after topping Group B with big wins over Maldives and defending champions Bangladesh; Bhutan, ranked far below India, will need to keep their defence tight as the match kicks off at 8:00pm BST. Local Education Reform: Bhutan’s Education Ministry has revised student assessment rules—students will no longer need 40% separately in both written exams and continuous assessment to pass, with the pass now based on combined scores, after concerns over rising Dzongkha failures. Property Rights Tech: A new digital consent system is being rolled out to strengthen land ownership protection by requiring verified consent from relevant parties before transactions can proceed, aiming to cut forged signatures and unauthorized deals. National Assembly Moves: Parliament endorsed expanded GST exemptions on essential goods and welfare items to ease cost-of-living pressures, adding more staple foods, edible oils, hygiene products and disability assistive devices. Debt Watch: Lawmakers raised concerns as Bhutan’s public debt reaches 90.6% of GDP, with external debt making up most of it and currency exposure flagged as a repayment risk.
