MUNICIPAL SCHOOLS.......

Municipal schools in Mumbai....Ive a lot to say about them....but will be brief...
yesterday I had been to one of them for some work......
the plight of the kids and teachers is pathetic.....
no safe drinking water, dirty smelly toilets...( i almost vomited)
teachers who dont knw their subjects....
teachers are mere clerks, they are expected to take admissions, do the paper work, file documents,and also manage 4 classes!
the rains have made the water room into a stagnant mess.....
the students are mostly first generation school goers....
i saw that many students were suffering from scabies...
during break time...the students sit in the corridors and eat their lunch...in their haste to eat, they spill their food and make a mess of the place...
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
WHY DONT WE GET ANGRY ANYMORE?
WHY DONT WE PROTEST?
HAVE BECOME SO INSENSITIVE?
