Bhubaneswar, Sep 13:
Over 2,000 schools in the state continue to run in dilapidated buildings, despite the Odisha government repeatedly sending reminders for demolition of the unsafe structures.
The School and Mass Education Department had published a booklet and circulated to all schools and directed the school management committees to adhere to the directive. However, the school authorities have failed to adhere to the directives, putting lives of thousands of children at risk.
After the unfortunate incident in Saraswati Sishu Vidya Mandir under Satyabadi block in Puri district where a girl student died of wall collapse, more such buildings have sent alarm bells ringing for worried parents.
