Following a sad event at Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) in Bhubaneswar, India, where Nepali student Prakriti Lamsal was discovered dead under upsetting conditions, Nepal’s Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has urged his fellow countrymen to think about going to China for further study. This advice emphasizes China’s better educational system, highly educated teachers, safer surroundings free from much of discrimination, and strong employment possibilities. This change marks a strategic turn in Nepal’s diplomatic and educational connections, from conventional dependence on Indian institutions toward building closer ties with China.
