CJP politician Ashutosh Ranka announced a visit to schools in Rajasthan and asked Education Minister Madan Dilawar to provide information on ten outstanding schools, as the state government restricts entry of outsiders.
Rajasthan's political arena has intensified over education issues, with Ashutosh Ranka of the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) announcing a scheduled tour of schools across the state. The move is seen as an effort to highlight the condition of public institutions ahead of upcoming electoral contests.
During a press briefing, Ranka requested that Education Minister Madan Dilawar furnish a list and details of ten "shandar" (outstanding) schools in Rajasthan. He said the information would help the party assess the quality of education and identify models for improvement.
In parallel, the state government has imposed a restriction on the entry of outsiders into school premises, citing security and administrative concerns. The ban adds a further layer of complexity to Ranka's planned visits, which will now have to navigate the new entry guidelines.
The development underscores the growing politicisation of education in the state, with parties using school performance as a rallying point while the administration tightens control over external access.
