Angered by the consistent denial of quality education at village school, this morning (3.11.2020) I wrote a petition to (1). Mrs. Esther Lal Ruatkimi, Commissioner & Secretary and (2). Mr. James Lalrinchhana, Director, Directorate of School Education, Government of Mizoram, asking them to appoint adequate number of teachers at Government Primary School at Samuksury Chakma village in Lunglei District of Mizoram. This government school is running with only one teacher for several years. The lone teacher teaches 80 students from Class I to IV. He has to teach all subjects, from maths to English to social sciences! This is not humanly possible.
When this lone teacher takes a particular class, the students of the other three classes have to simply sit idle or they make noise.
"How can a single teacher teach 80 students of four different classes? This is a total violation of the fundamental right to free and compulsory education upto elementary level guaranteed by the Constitution of India and the Right to Education Act. I therefore urge the Mizoram Education Department to immediately appoint adequate number of teachers at Govt PS at Samuksury as per SSA norms and the RTE Act" - I wrote to the Education Officials.
