The parents therefore submitted a memorandum to the Block Development Officer and the Block Education Officer of Korchi to appoint one more teacher on August 11. They had threatened to lock the school if a teacher is not appointed immediately. However no any attention to their demand was paid hence the parents locked the school on August 14 last. Since then the school remains to he closed hut no teacher has been appointed as yet and the students" continue to suffer, told the villagers.

The one teacher of this school goes to the school everyday and goes back because the school has been locked. No official or public representative has paid a visit to this school as yet and the parents are discontented.
