New Delhi: Abhijit Thipke has announced that a nationwide campaign will be launched on August 15 with the aim of improving rural government schools.
Abhijit Thipke, the founder of an organization called the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP), has released a video on social media. In it, he said, “On the 15th, the 80th Independence Day, a nationwide campaign will be launched urging the improvement of government schools. As part of this campaign, I will go to my village, Hingoli, in the Marathwada region of Maharashtra, and make a request to the village head to improve the government schools there.
All village leaders who watch this video should help improve the condition of the government schools in their villages. Please send us photos and videos of the current condition of the schools and their condition after improvement. They will be published on CJP’s social media,” he said.
Not only that, but pointing out the infrastructure condition of government schools, “It has been 80 years since India gained independence. Yet government schools in villages across the country have been neglected. Students still have to walk long distances to reach schools. In addition, there is no drinking water or toilet facility. Because of this, girl children in particular are facing great hardship.
We have built a new parliament and a new residence for the Prime Minister. If that is so, why have we not been able to build new schools in villages? Do we not regard the children of farmers and laborers in the villages as the future of our country? What have we done for those children, and why have we not been able to change the situation in which they cannot get the facilities that a child in a big city receives?” he asked.
Furthermore, “Let us pledge that we will improve the schools for all children living in villages. If we all come together, work hard, and act, we can certainly fix village schools. Because the real India lives in the villages.
In this effort, parents should also check whether the school their children study in has facilities such as electricity, drinking water, and toilets. If these facilities are not there, you can let us know. For this purpose, a form will soon be released on the CJP website. You can download it, fill it out, and send it to us by email,” he said.
