“Urdu Primary School was shifted to our school by Education Dept. in 2017. Our school does not have enough classrooms and this is the reason we teach students in a single room,” said Kumari Priyanka, the assistant teacher of Adarsh Middle School to news agency ANI.
When questioned about the state of affairs in the school, Kameshwar Gupta, district education officer, said: “If the enrollment of students in the Adarsh Middle School is less, then one room will be given to Urdu Primary School. It is not good if children of different classes are being taught on the same blackboard in the same room.”
