Funeral of education in Haryana's government schools: When the entire class fails, the system is the culprit

A shameful and disturbing news has come out from the government schools of Haryana - 18 schools of the state got zero percent result in the 12th board examination.

That is, not a single student from the entire school passed. This incident is not just about the failure of some students, but it is a situation that exposes the nakedness of the entire education system. This is not just a result, it is a mass murder of the dreams of a generation.

When there is no education, then what about rights?

Education has been established as a fundamental right in our Constitution. But when not even a single student passes out from a school, the question arises whether this right is just an eyewash? Are we just going through the motions of sending children to school, or are we actually making an effort to impart knowledge to them?

Looking at the condition of these 18 schools in Haryana, it seems that the focus is more on 'management' than education. Whether students come or not, whether they study or not, whether there are teachers or not - it does not matter, just the figures should look correct.

Already listed "bad schools", still no improvement!

The shocking thing is that these are the same schools that the government had already included in the list of 100 worst performing schools in the state. This means that the administration was already aware of the poor condition of these schools. But no teachers were added, no laboratories were built, nor was the operation of libraries ensured. Some schools do not even have science and math teachers - then how will the students pass?

Government school or punishment home?

Sending children to a school where there are no books, no teachers, no environment is not education, but mental exploitation. Today, many government schools have become just 'Mid Day Meal' distribution centers. Was this the purpose of these schools? In the name of education, only food and attendance are being taken, nothing else.

It's not the students who fail, it's the system that fails
