Monsoon Peril: Rajol Children Risk Lives for Education
Rajol village, Kangra, faces a grim reality this monsoon season. Children are undertaking perilous journeys to reach high schools, traversing flooded rivulets and treacherous forest paths. The recent shift to a monsoon school schedule has only heightened the danger.
The absence of a local high school forces these students to travel considerable distances, putting their safety at risk daily. The situation is particularly alarming during the monsoon, with swollen rivers and slippery trails posing significant threats.
Villagers are increasingly concerned for their children’s well-being and are appealing to the government for immediate intervention. They demand the construction of a high school in Rajol to end this life-threatening commute.
This urgent plea highlights a critical gap in educational infrastructure and underscores the need for prioritizing rural development and child safety. The government’s response will be a crucial test of its commitment to providing quality education to all, regardless of location.
