As per the details obtained by KNO, many government schools in Tral continue to reel under severe infrastructure deficiencies and acute staff shortages, leaving hundreds of students, mostly from economically weaker families, struggling for basic educational facilities.

Aggrieved parents and locals have urged the Education Minister to personally intervene and address what they describe as “years of neglect”.

They said that despite multiple requests to authorities, several schools in Tral are functioning under extremely difficult conditions, with children studying in tin sheds, overcrowded classrooms, and buildings lacking even basic amenities.
