Kathmandu. Stakeholders have emphasized the need to improve the quality of education by formulating an educational policy to stop students fleeing abroad from returning home.
At a discussion program on ‘Foreign Education Experience and Nepal’s Education Policy: Dialogue and Prospects’ organized by the Nepali Congress Central Education Department on Monday, Nepali Congress central member Umesh Jung Rayamajhi expressed the view that the country will not become prosperous unless education and health are provided. He pointed out the need to use forest land for the construction of educational infrastructure.
Former Vice-Chancellor of Tribhuvan University Prof. Dr. Tirtharaj Khaniya said that there is no effective policy regarding higher education in the country and foreigners are taking Nepali students to their countries.
Noting that the first country where Nepali students go is Australia and the second is Japan, he said that Nepali students were taken because there were many vacant houses in Japan. Former Vice Chancellor Khaniya said that the houses there are empty as Japanese who have gone to other countries have not returned.
Former Vice Chancellor Angraj Joshi emphasized that educational institutions should be made to have policies that are effective and implemented, emphasizing the need to provide education through easy access to the internet. Senior Advocate Dinesh Tripathi said that education is the backbone of the country, but it has been given low priority.
He informed that Liqun improved the quality of education even when he built Singapore.
Nepal Open University Vice Chancellor Silu Bajracharya emphasized the need to prepare for a research-based education system. He said that the quality of education will not improve if theoretical and practical knowledge cannot be imparted simultaneously.
Educationist Bidyanath Koirala said that an environment should be created for the Non-Resident Nepali Association (NRNA) to return to Nepal with knowledge, skills, technology, money and human resources. Parents’ Association President Suprabhat Bhandari emphasized that teachers of community schools should create an environment for effective teaching and learning.
Former President of the Non-Resident Nepali Association Kul Acharya said that the list of Nepali students who will suffer abroad is long as he himself helped by returning the bodies of 29 people from the UK to Nepal. Department Coordinator Nain Singh Mahar emphasized that the reason for the current unstable educational situation should be investigated. RSS
