Summary

Monitor notes: Major demolition Apr 4: 32 structures destroyed (Sedi to Khapaudi) including parts of Waterfront Resort. 150 personnel from Nepal Police + APF + municipal police deployed. Based on SC mandates (2018 & 2023) declaring 65m buffer zone protected. Mayor Dhanraj Acharya confirms no compensation for illegal structures. Legal land titles within zone will get compensation. Protests from affected owners but operation continues. PM's 100-agenda alignment cited.

What is this?

Launching a comprehensive quality improvement program for public schools — teacher training, learning materials, infrastructure upgrades, and outcome-based assessment.

Impact on people

The 70% of Nepali children who attend public schools get genuinely better education. The gap between public and private school outcomes narrows. Equal opportunity becomes real.

Why it matters

Public school quality has deteriorated so badly that anyone who can afford it sends children to private schools. This creates a two-tier education system that perpetuates inequality.
