KATHMANDU, Jan 16: There is less than a month left for the new academic session to start in the mountain districts but the government has not printed a single textbook of grades one and two yet. There are plans afoot to print colored textbooks of grades one and two for the first time this year.

KATHMANDU, Aug 2: A meeting among stakeholders scheduled for Monday for discussing the charges for printing textbooks could not take place after the state-owned Janak Education Material Center (JEMC) failed to justify its proposal for increasing the printing price.
