Ministry of Education Process to Provide Free Internet Facility for Students:
The Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology has made arrangements to provide free internet to students and schools from the upcoming Adhoj to facilitate learning.
In the Student Learning Facilitation Guideline passed in 19 Bhadau by the ministerial decision, it is mentioned that the Ministry of Education should provide free internet.
The role of the Ministry is clearly written in the guideline to provide free and concessional data packages to schools and students from Nepal Telecom and other internet service providers for educational purposes only.
The Ministry of Education has directed the federal, province, and local level bodies and stakeholders for the mandatory implementation of this directive from Ashoj 1. The information on the implementation of the directive issued by the Ministry states that the government at all three levels should implement the directive in order to achieve the learning achievements specified in the National Curriculum Draft and create an environment conducive to learning for school-age children.
The ministry said free internet was needed after schools and students complained that online classes were affected by the high cost of the internet.
