Rather school infrastructure should also be suitable for environment for education. It is a right of every child to have access to toilet in their schools. However, no official from the department concerned has even tried to attend to the problems being faced by the students. Owing to lack of toilets most of the girl students at primary level quit their studies. Today we have government schools in the district but don’t have clean drinking water facilities, compound walls, indoor outdoor games materials library books, etc.
