PATNA: It’s more than a fortnight since the new school year kicked off in Bihar, but children studying in primary schools are yet to get their textbooks. They are entitled to get free textbooks from the funds allotted to the state education department under Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA).
Prior to 2018, the Bihar State Text Book Publishing Corporation (BSTBPC) used to print and supply textbooks to the schools from where children used to collect their books.
