ANNFSU Demands Free Education Up To Secondary Level |
The All Nepal National Free Students Union (ANNFSU) on Saturday said the government ought to provide free education up to the secondary level along with having at least one primary school in each ward, a lower secondary school in each village development committee, a constituent campus and a model higher secondary school in each district.
Announcing the decisions of the three-day long ANNFSU national council third meeting held here, ANNFSU president Khimlal Bhattarai said that the meeting endorsed the one-man-one post idea in the ANNFSU from the central to the local level in order to strengthen the committee.
The meeting also endorsed the idea of providing 33 per cent seats to women in every committee, establishing residential schools in Karnali and remote areas, providing 50 per cent concession to students in transportation, health and entertainment. The students will also press the government to accept education certificates as collateral for taking educational loans.
Besides, the meeting formed a 165-member 18th ANNFSU national conference organising committee under the co-ordination of Khimlal Bhattarai. The 18th national conference, with the slogan ''Constituent assembly election for peoples' republic, students movement for people-oriented and equal education", will be held in Chitwan from September 17 to September 22.
