‘Washroom Only For Girls, Boys Use Open Field’: CJP Flags Infrastructure Gaps, Staff Shortage At Bihar, Jharkhand Schools · timesnownews.com

A government school in Nawada, Bihar, was found to be missing important facilities.

Girls have a washroom, but boys do not.

Boys reportedly have to use an open field instead.

The school also has no boundary wall.

A wall could help keep the school grounds safer.

The report also mentions shortages of staff and facilities in schools in Bihar and Jharkhand.

The Citizens for Justice and Peace campaign called the situation very poor.
