No Textbook For a Governement School's Student!

I was in my hometown Jhapa about a week ago. And books and stationery shopkeepers were very busy selling boarding school's books, and other accessories. 

But on the same note, they were not selling a single textbook for a student studying in a government school.

I inquired. A government school itself distributes the whole set of textbooks to the school students for a free of charge. So shopkeepers don't bother to keep government school's books. And they say no profit in those books, but about 15% profit in boarding school's books.

Janak Shiksha Limited, which the Nepal government gave entire responsibility of printing the textbooks, is wholly responsible for a government school's student not getting book on proper time. A huge amount of commission goes to concerned parties not to publish enough books.

It's totally shameful that our government can't provide textbooks to school-going children. The inequality between a rich and poor child starts from here, and become more and more dangerous, and difficult to fill.

Our country is on the verge of failed state. It doesn't hurt me as much as a school going children only get textbook at the end of the season because s/he studies in a government school.
