It seems that the situation in government schools is never going to change as despite the large claims by the government regarding quality of education, teachers are preparing Class X students for board exams with the help of 'passbooks' or textbook guides and completing the course for upcoming final examinations. This was found out when Zila Pramukh Vandana Nogia with her team inspected various government schools in nearby villages on Tuesday. Also, many teachers remain absent from school without information and do not evaluate the homework.

The inspection team further revealed that mid-day meal given to students in school is not up to the mark. The computers provided so that students can learn latest technology are not being used whereas the education department claims that education of government schools is improving and they are ready to compete with private schools.

According to Vandana, (Zila Pramukh), she found that teacher Puran Gujjar and Santosh Hinoniya were absent from the school and there was no reason given for their absence. Also, maths teacher, jyoti was teaching students with a cheap guide without even making them understand the concept. Vandana find all this while inspecting inspects the government senior secondary school of Beer village.

Another senior secondary school at Jatia, it was found that the teachers didn't evaluated homework and there was no teaching atmosphere. The mid-day meal served was prepared against the norms with no ratio between number of students and the meal prepared. All this was raised to the principal by Vandana.

Further, the team found that in most schools teaching was not up to the mark as teachers are not bothered about students learning. It seemed like a formality and the course wasn't completed. The computer room is not being used in many schools with computers looking like a waste.

 As per an official, during inspection they found that teachers are not using computers and they were like waste while the state government had provided computers for students as well as teachers so that teachers can prepare their lectures through presentation. Vandana asked the principal to ensure that the course is completed on time by organizing extra classes for students and that they get time for revision.

Not only schools but gram panchayat had the same situation as team found that the Atal Sewa Kendra and office of the gram panchayat were locked. MGNERGA work at Madeli village has 120 workers listed but only 52 were found on the spot.
