Government Schools Across India Struggle with Infrastructure and Facility Challenges

Analysed 21 Sept 2026·3 sources analysed·Assam, India·Social
Government Schools Across India Struggle with Infrastructure and Facility ChallengesPreviousNext

Several government schools across India face significant infrastructure challenges, including waterlogging, overcrowded classrooms, and inadequate facilities. In Guwahati, stagnant water and lack of drainage disrupt learning, while in Jalandhar, students eat meals near toilets due to cramped spaces. In Chhattisgarh, over 100 students attend classes in a building meant for waste management after their school was deemed unsafe. Officials have been informed, but permanent solutions remain pending, raising concerns about student safety and learning conditions.
