Abstract

The national budget for FY2020-21 is going to be formulated at a time, when the Bangladesh economy, like other economies around the world, is suffering from the fallouts of COVID-19 pandemic. The government will need to pursue an expansionary fiscal policy and go for expanded public expenditure to help mitigate the risks and shocks originating from the pandemic, stimulate domestic demand and strengthen supply-side responses. This will lead to higher budget deficit. There must be renewed efforts for better mobilisation of resources and raising efficacy of public expenditure. The fiscal space to be created due to higher budget deficit should be used efficiently and with inclusivity, so that concerns of rising inequality are not further accentuated in view of COVID-19 response.
