Free education sounds very impressive but  how do we  know  that system will help Nepal in long run. Following things should be considered before talking about free education:

1) If the teachers are paid low, it is likely that they will pursue other jobs. If education is free, we have to have to get good teachers to make education valuable.
2) Free education is a long-run plan. It cannot be implemented immediately because there has to be a research done about its cons and pros.
3) Most countries that offer free education follow excellent tax system. Money has to cycle in the economy to make this happen. Considering the poor tax system of our country, anything free seems unlikely- good to read on a paper but hard to put it down in reality.
4) There has to be a choice given-- people who can afford for better schools should be allowed do so and people who cannot can always use the free education system if that is available. Any forced law cannot plant development- thats why communism  usually fails.
5) Abolishment of private school is a terrible plan. Even in China there are thousands of private schools so closing down such schools will surely affect our education system. It is a known fact all over the world that private education is most of the time better than public education.
