SURKHET: The High Court Surkhet has issued an interim order not to take any admission fee from students while enrolling in community schools.
A division bench of Judges Madhav Prasad Pokharel and Punam Singh Chand ordered not to charge any fees to students until the final decision is made on the petition.
Issuing the pro-tem interim order on May 6, the High Court had called both sides for May 24 to hold discussion for interim order.
After hearing the discussion of both sides, the Court on Monday issued an order not to take any-type of fees from students.
The order reads, “The issues of ensuring the rights of the children of getting free education mandatorily till class eight and free education from class nine to 12 cannot be ignored.”
Advocate Khem Raj Jaisi Tiwari had filed writ petition, saying community schools in Surkhet have been charging fees arbitrarily from students against the right of getting free education ensured by the Constitution of Nepal.
