JIND: Women and girls from this district’s Rohad village near Safidon town on Wednesday locked down a government senior secondary school where a three-year shortage of teachers has forced many girls to drop out.
This school that was sanctioned 12 teachers is run by only one, a woman who teaches biology. It was upgraded from middle school in 2019 when Ram Bilas Sharma was the state education minister but the teachers have not been deputed, so far. Komal, Varsha and other girl students said there was no school for another 10 kilometers, so they came to school even if there was no teacher, otherwise their parents will tell them to stay home.
