Without using language, one cannot think about education. Language is the ladder to ascend to the top of education. The use of a language in education is considerably sensitive issue.
The vital and potential numbers of Dalits as a human resource have been back warded for centuries in Nepal. Dalits have been undergoing great obstacles on the path of all-round development and getting mental inhibition because of language at every steps of their life. They have overall command on their mother tongue; but that language is not enough for their existence. For example, when they become the victim of disasters or they are in abrupt destructed situation, they have to speak Nepali even with rescue officers, and to write even an application in Nepali. That is, they have to express in Nepali in written or oral forms. Owing to the information gap, they could not get appropriate relief.
So, they are with their mother tongue only, they could not compete in Nepali medium for opportunities, could not interact properly in Nepali. That's why, their existence is confined to be the lower citizen or the laborers.
The solutions of these problems may be in the security of diverse linguistic prosperity and reservation.
The present reservation in constitution creates the great contention into two poles. Firstly, the supporters advocate that the long rooted oppression and established stereotypes of inequality will be broken only with affirmative action, positive discrimination and reservation which are needed to compensate minorities for centuries of slavery.
On the other pole, diametrically opposite viewers (i.e. in a talk program of Martin Chautari ) claim that affirmative action and reservation will invite lower standards of accountability and ill- equipped bureaucrats; hard working habit and ability development will be obstructed. So, it should be eliminated. They disregard the language right and the importance of languages and non Nepali speakers who can not get any opportunity in the nation.
