DOLPA : To get fresh textbooks at the beginning of the new academic session is usually a moment of waiting for almost all school students in Dolpa district.

But some 1,100 students in Dolpa do not know how long they have to wait for seeing new course books in hand.

School children of Jagadulla rural municipality-9 are attending class without books for two months.

According to the Mahadev Basic School Management Committee, the local government is responsible for this delay in delivering the school textbooks. The situation appeared as the local government did not purchase the texts on time for the distribution.
