Centre Directs Action on Unrecognized Schools in Jharkhand, Bihar

Centre Directs Action on Unrecognized Schools in Jharkhand, Bihar

The government is telling the states of Jharkhand and Bihar to deal with schools that aren't officially recognized.

These schools are operating without the proper permission from the government.

To be recognized, schools need to follow certain rules, like having the right facilities and qualified teachers.

The government is concerned because many schools in these states haven't been approved.

According to the Right to Education Act, these schools have to get recognized or face penalties, including fines and closure.

The government wants the states to take action to either help these schools meet the requirements or shut them down.
