Kishtwar, Oct 14: The education system in District Kishtwar of Jammu province has badly suffered since last four months first due to massive earthquake on May 1 and secondly due to August 9 communal violence.

As per the students of Boys Higher Secondary School all the six lecturers instead of teaching them are attending their duties as duty magistrates since last nearly two years.
The students said that due to continuous attachment of school lecturers as duty magistrate, the student community has suffered a lot. They said that though the school administration has clubbed few classes to overcome the shortage, but added that the syllabus is still far from completion. They said that the administration order is continuously hunting them as they feel that in the era of competition every school day is important. Few students also said that similar problem was also faced by the 12th class students who are schedule to appear in the board exam at the end of this month. The students said that despite making request to the board authorities for postponement of 12th class examination by one month so that the students can cover the left out syllabus, but nothing was done on ground.
