Unsafe Schools in Jalandhar Await Repairs, Students Study in Temporary Spaces
Three government primary schools in Jalandhar—GPS Janian Chahal, GPS Chak Wadala, and GPS Sidhupur—have been declared unsafe for up to two years, forcing students to study in temporary spaces like verandahs and under trees. Despite parental concerns and official assurances, repair work has been delayed. Construction grants have been received for two schools, with work expected to start soon, while GPS Sidhupur awaits funding. Authorities have made interim arrangements to ensure student safety amid ongoing infrastructure challenges.
