Supreme Court orders not to punish Nepali speakers in private school premises

The Supreme Court has issued an injunction prohibiting the punishment of students for speaking Nepali within the premises of private and residential schools.

The Supreme Court has issued a decree to stop such actions, saying that the law prohibits them. The Supreme Court issued a decree last Wednesday in the name of the Ministry of Education, PABSON, and others in the writ petition filed by law student Ayush Badal and others.

In the writ petition filed by law student Ayush Badal, a joint bench of Justices Tek Prasad Dhungana and Shantisingh Thapa issued a decree in the name of the opposition not to punish children for speaking Nepali language inside private school premises and not to pressure students to speak English.

In addition, the Supreme Court has said that if there is any policy directive to punish children for using Nepali language in private schools under PABSON, such a circular will be revoked and not to be implemented.
