KATHMANDU METROPOLITAN CITY to Implement “FREE BOOK DAY” in SCHOOLS
Date: April 26, 2023
Overview:
The Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) has announced the implementation of “Book Free Day” in every school, where students will not carry any books to school on Fridays. Mayor Balen Shah addressed the public, stating that the purpose of this initiative is to educate children about the value of hard work and respect for all professions.
Speaking on the topic of “Free Book Day”, Mayor Balen Shah emphasized the importance of teaching students about the true value of goods and services they consume. He explained that purchasing vegetables for Rs 40 does not accurately represent the hard work and effort that farmers put into growing the produce. Similarly, the furniture we sit on every day requires skilled labor and effort to make.
The Mayor believes that the present generation needs to understand the value of hard work and respect for all professions, regardless of their size. He stated that it is essential to learn this skill, as it will help students to grow as individuals and be more economically self-sufficient in the future.
Furthermore, the Mayor added that having skills is crucial in preventing deformities and promoting economic growth. He shared that if he were not a mayor, he would have loved to be a truck driver or an engineer, as these professions require skills and knowledge to be successful.
Conclusion: The implementation of “Book Free Day” in every school in the Kathmandu Metropolitan City is an excellent initiative to promote the value of hard work and respect for all professions. This step will help students learn the true worth of goods and services, thereby contributing to their personal growth and economic self-sufficiency.
