KATHMANDU, APR 14 -
The Department of Education (DoE) has directed the district education offices across the country to strictly monitor private schools so that they cannot incorporate books not approved by the Curriculum Development Centre (CDC).
The DoE, under the Ministry of Education, issued the directive after a number of private schools were found to have been teaching Indian books not approved by the CDC. It has also directed legal action against schools found teaching unauthorised books.
Meanwhile, founders of the National Private and Boarding Schools Association of Nepal (NPABSAN) have said they will launch a protest to sack President Geeta Rana for her act of imposing Indian books that contain anti-national information on students.
Organising a press meet on Wednesday, they claimed that some of the coursebooks in her school are unauthorised as the CDC has not approved them. Rana’s act of incorporating textbooks that teach the national animal as tiger, the national bird as peacock and the national flower as lotus is controversial. NPABSAN founder president Basanta Bahadur Shrestha said Rana deserves punishment for the unlawful act.
