Education plays key role to institutionalise democracy : President
President Dr Ram Baran Yadav has said the country would have bright future once we institutionalize democracy and republic.
Addressing a programme organized to mark the golden jubilee celebrations of the Sahid Shukraraj Secondary School at Bagbazar in the capital on Tuesday, President Dr Yadav said the education sector could play a significant role to institutionalize democracy and republic.
The achievements made so far are as a result of the contribution of the martyrs, he said, adding that there were immense development prospects in Nepal with proper management of politics.
Wishing further progress to the School, President Dr Yadav expressed his belief that the School would be successful to produce honest, responsible, and moral human resource for the nation.
On the occasion, Education Minister Dina Nath Sharma pointed out the need for restructuring pedagogy with the promulgation of the new constitution in the country.
Minister Sharma said the government schools should be made competent in par with the private-run schools in order to boost up quality education.
At the programme, President Dr Yadav unveiled a golden jubilee stone scripture set up on the precincts of the School, and released a School souvenir titled Chandrakanta.
Chairman of the School Management Committee, Dal Bahadur Shrestha and Principal Manju Tuladhar presented the progress report of the School.
The School was named after martyr Shukraraj Shastri by his sister Chandrakanta in 2018 BS. Shastri attained martyrdom during the autocratic Rana regime before 2007 BS.
