One such school is the Kalyanpura Secondary School which has a capacity of 409 students, but only seven classrooms to offer
Even as there is a need for better emphasis on education, the deteriorating conditions of schools in the Madhya Pradesh district of Jhabua leave a lot to be desired. Even as some schools lack basic infrastructure and facilities, there are others that have not even begun holding lectures in classes as the main school building is yet to be opened to students due to red-tapism.
One such school is the Kalyanpura Secondary School which has a capacity of 409 students, but only seven classrooms to offer. Ironically, a separate school building has been built and ready for use, but after its inauguration by the Public Works Department (PWD) and Environment Minister Sajjan Singh Verma, the structure has been stuck in red-tape limbo and not made available to students. Mostly, the lectures are being conducted in the open verandah of the school. Adding to the misery of these students, when classes are conducted in the seven available classes, students are crammed inside till there is no space for even a blackboard!
A similar problem is being faced by the students studying in the girls' high school in the region. Even for simple ask like shifting the girl students to a new building, a blame game has ensued amongst the local authorities and the Project Implementation Unit (PIU) department. According to the school principal, the building has not yet been handed over to the school, citing some incomplete construction.

Meanwhile, students in Bisoli continue to suffer in spite of schools built for them. Since the school was built on the outskirts of the village, a bridge was to connect the two. However, following the rains, the connecting bridge has been washed out and the students are now risking their lives to reach the school. "Since a part of the bridge has been washed out in the rains, we assist each other and climb the nearby walls to cross the bridge and reach our school," said a student on the condition of anonymity.
Meanwhile, taking cognisance of the state of the schools in the district, concerned officials said that they will look into the matter of both the schools and promised to coordinate with other related departments to address the situation.
