Kulgam, Dec 3: A government primary school in the Bebrada area of Yaripora belt, in south Kashmir’s Kulgam district, remains neglected and unnoticed by both local and higher administration. Despite decades passing, the school is still operating in a open sky.
“I have been studying in open for several years. I hope we get a roof soon”, a student told VOI.
“Without a toilet in the school, teachers and students have to beg neighbours to allow them to use their washrooms,” he said.
“I feel sad to know that the authorities have not constructed a proper school building for these young minds till date, in this digital era, the students of this school are striving for basic necessities”, a local resident said.
Locals urged the concerned authorities to look into the issue so that students could heave a sigh of relief.
In response, the Chief Education Officer (CEO) of Kulgam, Iqbal Hussain told that he would take up the matter with higher ups for construction of the school building in the area.
