OUR PLANNING FOR CONSTRUCT SCHOOL BUILDING IN GORKHA

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT

Traditionally, Nepal is a multi-ethnic, multicultural, multi-religious, and multi-linguistic country. People of different races, castes, and ethnic communities live in Nepal; they speak their own mother tongue and have different cultures and lifestyle. So the culture differs from one caste to another. Due to the diversities a lot of social problems and evils are deep rooted in Nepal hindering the real development of the country. Among many social problems, social inequality (so called high caste and low caste system) is most significant. The difference between high caste and low caste and rich and poor is very big and exists in almost all parts of the country. The so-called high caste people look down upon low caste people, creating the social segregation known as untouchability, leading to occupational difficulties and limited opportunity. So called low caste people have been badly exploited by the higher caste people and are prohibited from using public facilities like water taps, wells, temples etc.

Shree Batuki lower secondary school is situated in that part where the majority of people are from lower castes. People are deprived of the facilities provided by the government. Though having sloping hills and less fertile land, the majority people are engaged in agriculture because of lack of other employment opportunities. This is made even more difficult by the fact that every year flooding erodes the top soil, reducing the fertility of soil and ultimately reducing the productivity. Moreover, because of the trend of youth migration to the city and overseas, there are no young people to work in the field. People are faced with famine almost six months every year. People are still following the traditional system of farming, and engaged in low paying jobs like tailoring, iron works, etc. They can hardly manage to provide their morning to evening meal. People are typically illiterate. They predominantly believe in Hinduism, following superstition and a traditional set of beliefs.
