KMC to support community colleges


Kathmandu, Dec. 21: Mayor of the Kathmandu Metropolitan City Bidya Sunder Shakya has said that he would support community colleges in achieving educational excellence.

"There is a need to attract students to the community schools and colleges. So the KMC will collaborate with such educational institutions and support to increase their quality," he said while speaking at the 24th Anniversary of Janamaitri Multiple Campus (JMC) at Kuleshwor Height on Friday.

He also said that the metropolis had plans to develop modern gardens in community schools.
Mayor Shakya stressed on quality, modern and practical education.

"Students should be salable as the products produced in a factory. Your education can be termed as successful when market absorbs your products when they complete their degrees," he said.
He appreciated JMC for the quality education at reasonable cost.

Chief of JMC Bhola Nath Ojha said that the campus exhibited resilience and continued teaching-learning activities even though all of its buildings were damaged in the 2015 earthquake.
