hi sumanyuhans

current is scaler bcoz from ohm's law V =IR now since V & R are scalar's hence I is scalar.

also second way of seeing it is I = dq/dt where q is a scalar hence i should be a scalar

now u might say that current flows from +ve to -ve terminal hence it has a direction.yes of course but this direction does not change & remains the same under any condition .hence it cannot be said that it is a vector.

hope you understood
