KMC urged to elect SMC president from among guardians

Kathmandu, July 25  :  The Community School Management Committee Federation of Nepal has called for making arrangement to elect the School Management Committee (SMC) president from among the guardians.    

The Federation made this demand in a memorandum it submitted to the Kathmandu Metropolitan City on Monday. It demanded annulment of the provision of the Ward Chair automatically becoming the president of the SMC.    

Federation president Gunaraj Moktan handed over the memorandum to KMC Deputy Mayor Sunita Dangol. Moktan said they handed over the memo to the KMC, expressing objection over KMC's decision of dissolving the SMCs.    

According to Moktan, while accepting the memorandum, Deputy Mayor Dangol has given word that the KMC would hold discussion on the issue raised by the Federation.    

KMC has recently made a decision to disband the existing SMC of the community schools within the metropolis and forming the SMC under the leadership of the local Ward Chair. (RSS)
