Talasahi School Running in Broken Cottage (!)
Bhagabat Padhi,Odishabarta
Paralakhemundi-Earlier plank by the then Sarva Sikhya Abhiyaan as ‘Saviyen padhantu, sabhiyen badhantu'(all must read & all must rise) slogans & now under 5T to raise enrollments are on scenarios by Odisha government.Every attempt to attract the children to join at government school is the motive behind to ensure quality education. But on reality stooped by some inconvenience factors where teachings & students interest on studies partially disturbed.
Similar instance found at Talasahi Primary School of Loba panchayat under Rayagada block of Gajapati district.Scarcity of classrooms devastated the students on teachings,where they feel like ancient ashram of those Rishis & Saints. Hardly action taken on renovation of school building,rather those students use to sit under Cottage floor.From 1st std to 5th std classes functioning with strength of 58 students & 8 teachers.Despite all visible strength teachings too paralysed because all students have to sit in one place. Villagers,too,annoyed by such utter negligence of administration as classes run under straw roofing.Not to tell docile seen during rainy days where classes held up to bring quality teachings.
So villagers & SMC (school management committee) members eg; Padmacharan Bhuyan, Lochan Mandal, Balaji Gamango, Manjula Mandal,Mamata Bhuyan retorted for immediate reconstruction if school building.While interacted with Purnabasi Bhuyan Chairperson of Rayagada block,she quipped now she got such information. No sooner building construction will be started & other core issues will be too taken.
