INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Kathmandu, July 2
Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has laid emphasis on formulation of plans for utilisation of human resources in the
county.
Addressing the 20th general assembly of Pokhara University in Baluwatar today, he directed the university to develop necessary plans
with recommendations on how the country human resources could be utilised in the domestic market.
&Nepal has adequate human resources for
its development, but brain drain is a serious challenge due to unemployment
Even educated people are jobless,& PM Oli said
He directed the university to prepare a plan as to what kinds of skills and education should be imparted to students to ensure that the
country doesn&t suffer brain drain in the future.
&All universities in the country have to formulate plans to stop foreign migration of
human resource they produce
Nepal is a land of scholars since ancient period.
Sages of ancient period gained knowledge in this land
Nepal lacked behind later in the sector of education due to lack of visionary rulers,& he said.
PM Oli said many educated people in the
country had been unemployed due to lack of coherence between the country needs and the degree they earned
&Investment should be made only in that sector of education which guarantees employment,& he said.
He instructed universities to grant
affiliation to new colleges only after analysing their academic programmes and employment prospects of the graduates they produce.
&I
request you to put an end to the practice of granting affiliation to colleges without any research and study, thereby contributing to the
increase in the number of educated unemployed people in the country,& he said.
