    Abstract

    ![CDATA[This research paper describes a number of different economic programs introduced in Nepal between 1990‐2010. The study focuses on how those programs are affected from political instability and corruption to ensure social and economic sustainability in the life of poor people. This research is based on document analysis (journal articles, Web pages, reports of various institutions). A conclusion is derived via qualitative data analysis from subjective approach. The results showed that the program which was introduced by Outsiders (Other than government organisation) is effective in bringing social and economic sustainability to the lives of poor people. However, the programs introduced by the government failed to achieve their goal because of political meddling. The research was conducted via secondary data analysis (document analysis) therefore, it is recommended that the future research be carried via primary data. The research will provide valuable guidelines to the Nepalese government and other government of developing countries, which are suffering from political crisis, to implement their plan and policies effectively. This research is very helpful for the Nepalese societies to understand the role of the Nepalese government to address social and economic problems. In addition, it will help them to evaluate the efficiency of political government.]]
