Early Times Report Jammu, Dec 18: In a joint statement Kuldeep Kumar Rao & Ram Singh Chauhan the active members of Movement for Peace, Equality & Justice have expressed great anguish & surprise, that education sector, being the backbone of every civilized country, has been meted out a casual & callous attention in the entire country in general & state of J&K in particular. This fact was in an unprecedented manner noticed by none other than Chief Justice of India, TS Thakur who happened to visit an Institution of his schooling days-Central Basic Hr. Sec. School Purani Mandi, Jammu. Noticing the wretched & pathetic conditions of the School, he could not control his emotions & virtually broke down in presence of huge gathering as also some state Ministers including present Education Minister-Naeem Akhtar, commenting emphatically as to how this important sector is being handled by the successive governments in the heart of Summer Capital of State Government? The duo said that if the condition of Education sector is in wretched condition under the nose of state government, the plight of far off rural areas can be gauged glaringly. They said that our Prime Minister of the Country & Education Minister of the State, yearn for a change both in socio-cultural area, must take cognizance of the situation and take immediate steps to set the house in order. The people have high hopes of reforms with Prime Minister & Naeem Akhtar for breaking the ice. |
