JAMMU: A delegation of residents from the Khari area of District Ramban met BJP Vice President Rajeev Charak and apprised him of the severe shortage of staff in government schools functioning in Block Khari.

The delegation highlighted that the post of Principal has been lying vacant for a long time, and out of 17 sanctioned posts of lecturers across various subjects, only 3 are currently filled. In addition, several posts of masters and other essential staff have also remained vacant for an extended period, severely affecting students’ education.

They stated that due to the lack of adequate teaching staff, students are not receiving quality education, which is adversely impacting their future. The delegation further informed that multiple representations had previously been submitted to the concerned authorities, but no concrete action has been taken so far, prompting them to bring the matter directly to his attention.

The delegation urged Mr. Charak to take the matter seriously and intervene personally to ensure that all vacant posts in the schools are filled at the earliest. BJP Vice President Mr. Rajeev Charak listened to the concerns attentively and contacted the concerned authorities over the phone to discuss the situation of Government Higher Secondary School, Khari, and other schools in the area. He also advised the delegation to meet the relevant authorities to ensure justice and quality education for the students.

Charak stated that Jammu & Kashmir is currently under the National Conference-led government, and even the MLA from the Khari-Banihal constituency belongs to the same party. Despite the Education Department being under their control, it is unfortunate that people still have to travel long distances to get their issues addressed. He alleged that the government and public representatives are limited to making assurances and have failed to take concrete action on public issues.

He further stated that any government or representative that deprives students of basic facilities like education and plays with their future has no moral right to remain in power and should resign immediately.

Charak added that the Central Government is working on the principle of Antyodaya, ensuring that welfare schemes and public services reach the last person in society. Despite continuous support and financial assistance from the Centre to the UT government, if children in any region are deprived of basic educational facilities, it will not be tolerated.

On the occasion, J&K Kisan Morcha President Rakesh Pant, Ramesh Kumar Katoch, Randeep Singh Parihar, Sajjad Manhas (District Ramban Kisan Morcha General Secretary), Farid Ahmad, Nawaz Hussain, and other prominent citizens were present.
