A college in their dzongkhag, Sarpang people say

People of Sarpang say there is a need for a university degree college in their district. They say, considering the vastness and population, the district qualifies to have one. Today, in the absence of a college, locals say, sending their children to continue their studies to another place is financially burdensome.

At present, there are four higher secondary schools including two private schools in Sarpang. From these, at least 800 class 12 students graduate annually. And the nearest degree college for them to pursue further studies in any course is in Thimphu.

“Sarpang has 12 gewogs. If the government could establish a college here, then our children will not have to travel to Thimphu or other far off places to continue with their studies,” Nyechu,  a resident, said.

“Sarpang has both private and government higher secondary schools. So many students pass out every year. Those who perform well get admitted in government colleges but for others, they have to look for admissions in far places. So, we would be grateful, if the government could establish a university,” Chencho Gyeltshen, another resident, said.

The local leaders of Sarpang also agreed on the need for a college in the dzongkhag.  The issue was raised during the recent Dzongkhag Tshogdu as well.

“We the local leaders proposed three times for the establishment of a college in Sarpang. The population is quite high in the district and we also have many school going children. Therefore, it would benefit the public if a college is established in the dzongkhag,” Chhuzanggang Gup Sangay Tshering said.

The dzongkhag education officer said the number of students completing class 12 from the schools in Sarpang has been increasing over the years. So, proposing for a degree college in the district is reasonable. The Dzongkhag Tshogdu will write to the education ministry regarding the matter.
