Nepal Rushes to Distribute Textbooks for New Academic Session Amid Printing Efforts

Kathmandu. The Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and relevant bodies are working intensively to produce textbooks on time for the new academic session and ensure they reach every student. Janak Shiksha Samagri Kendra Limited, fully owned by the Government of Nepal, has started preparations for sales and distribution after printing 97 percent of the target textbooks set for the school level as of today.

Relevant officials stated that students will not face textbook shortages because Janak Shiksha Samagri Kendra managed the regular responsibility of textbook production alongside printing ballot papers for the House of Representatives elections held on Falgun 21. Private sector printers have also confirmed that all assigned textbooks have been printed according to their responsibilities.
