Out of the total 108 minority-run schools in Bihar, 91 have been reportedly shut, while others are without required teachers.

BIHAR — Elementary schools in Bihar, managed by religious and linguistic minorities and philanthropic organizations, are on the verge of extinction as only 17 of the total 108 such schools are functional with 91 reported to be shut due to lack of teachers, the information sought from a right to information (RTI) request has revealed. 

The information was provided by the primary education directorate of Bihar’s education department to RTI activist Shiv Prakash Rai of Buxar.

Shiv Prakash told TwoCircles.net that he received a copy of the information on March 25, signed by Shashwanand Jha, joint director of primary education. According to the information provided by the education department, six years ago Patna had fourteen functional elementary schools but today there are only three. These elementary schools are non-government aided schools. The teachers are appointed by the school management committee and are paid by the government. The elementary schools are government primary and middle schools (including aided by the state government and aided by minority schools) in which education is imparted up to the 5th or 8th standard. 

The elementary schools which are closed include Sri Guru Govind Singh Sing Boys School and Sri Guru Govind Singh Girls School in Patna run by Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee. 

Trilok Singh, joint secretary of Gurunanak Mission Centre, told TwoCirles.net that though the said schools are functional “due to lack of teachers, the teachers’ study gets hampered as the committee is forced to hire ‘private teachers’ who are not paid by the education department.”
