- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @Pathanamthitta

WITH just a fortnight remaining for the reopening of schools, a body of school headmasters has alleged that the General Education Department lacks preparedness. Despite the issuance of a circular outlining precautions to be taken before the commencement of the academic year, significant delays in key areas remain unaddressed.

While the distribution of school uniforms was ceremonially inaugurated earlier, the uniforms are yet to reach schools. Similarly, textbooks have been delivered only partially, leaving many schools ill-equipped for the upcoming term, said the Kerala Government Primary School Headmasters Association (KGPSHA).

Suddenly, one day in June, the CEC announced a nationwide SIR beginning with Bihar. Why so suddenly and so hastily?
