It's high time sombody shed light on the ever-abysmal situation of the public school system in Nepal. The Government should collect tax from every conceivable for-profit business and allocate generous budget for public educational programs that are practical in nature. Education is the only shot, majority of the lower class members of the society get, when it comes to upward mobility. 

The best way to achieve quick and sustainable results in Dr. Bhattarai's crusade for educational reform, is to require the government executives/servants a taste of their own medicine by making them send their children to public schools. Do you remember the anecdate that a Water Resource Minister (back in the day) only used mineral water for drinking purposes instead of tap water that his ministry administered. Those days should be far-flung in the annals of history of our country.  I ain't saying that private schools should be banned. They can continue to operate at a profit provided they pay tax like any other business. In the long run, the expensive private boarding schools, that make the students study in summer under the hot corrugated metal roof and that malnourish the boarding students, should be made irrelevant in lieu of free and quality public school system.

In brief, the country needs sound infrastructure for businesses to foster. Then those businesses should rightly be taxed to channel funds for public well-being and security.
