It is said that some schools in ward no 15 and 18 in the KMC are running physical classes even as the country is now passing through the third phase of COVID-19.  


Chief of Education Department of KMC Ram Prasad Subedi said the schools would face music if they don’t immediately stop physical classes. 


“It is a punishable act to run classes on the pretext of charging fees from students at a time when support from all sides is needed to control the pandemic,” Subedi added.  “Such schools should immediately stop opening schools. Otherwise they will face stern actions.”
