thebalanced.newsHaryana Rights Commission Probes Poor Conditions in Nuh Government Schools
The Haryana Human Rights Commission (HHRC) has initiated suo motu proceedings after reports revealed severe infrastructure deficiencies in government primary schools in Nuh district's Ferozepur Jhirka area. Some schools operate without proper buildings, including one functioning from a cattle shed where children study amid livestock and foul odors. Another school conducts classes in an open field with blackboards tied to trees, exposing students to harsh weather. Despite sanctioning 68 new schools in 2020, many still lack basic facilities, raising concerns over violations of children's rights to education and health.
