Madhubani School Crisis: One Room for 60 Students, Land Dispute Halts Development
- •A primary school in Adalpur, Madhubani, operates classes 1-5 in a single room for 60 students, despite having 5 teachers.
- •The school building is on land owned by the Agriculture Department, not the Education Department, causing constant hurdles for development.
- •Lack of an NOC from the Agriculture Department prevents construction of new rooms or toilets, despite repeated complaints.
- •Children are forced to study under trees in summer and outdoors in winter due to insufficient space and facilities.
- •A toilet was secretly built years ago for female teachers and girl students due to the absence of proper facilities and departmental coordination issues.
Why It Matters: A Madhubani primary school faces severe resource shortages and land disputes, hindering children's education.
