CJP Demands Jaipur School Reopening After Four-Year Lockout
A government school in Jaipur was rebuilt but has stayed locked for four years.
The children who used to study there were moved to another school.
Some children left the nearby school or stopped studying altogether.
About 80 to 85 children now learn in a small temporary room.
The Cockroach Janta Party visited the temporary school.
Party members spoke with the teacher and local residents.
They want the government to reopen the rebuilt school.
They said they will start a campaign if it is not unlocked within a week.
