Education needs to be linked with development, says Education Minister

BHARATPUR: Minister for Education Girirajmani Pokhrel today said education needs to be linked with the development construction.

Quality reforms are not likely by the meager intervention of the past, he said.

Minister Pokhrel said that the new education policy would systematize the sub- sectoral policies.

Meanwhile, speaking at a program in Kathmandu today, Minister Pokhrel said that three new bills would be tabled during the ongoing winter session of the parliament.
