The Ministry of Education has issued a directive prohibiting the organization of events in government schools on Sundays. This decision comes following a request by the Ministry of Buddhist Affairs, which emphasizes the importance of respecting Sundays as a day of religious observance and rest.
The circular, issued by the Additional Secretary of the School Activities Division, highlights the Ministry’s commitment to ensuring that no activities disrupt the observance of Sunday’s Dham Pasal. Schools have been instructed to comply with this directive and refrain from planning or hosting Sunday events.
