HOW can a school run without classrooms and only with facilities like a boundary wall, toilet block, and drinking water space alone, the Delhi HC asked, expressing dismay at the authorities for their inaction in rebuilding an MCD-run primary school in Khirki Village.

The court's remark came after it was informed that the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) had granted permission for repair and renovation of existing facilities like a porta cabin, toilet block, boundary wall, and water space—but not for the construction of classrooms.
