Gadag, Nov 29: The government schools in state are on the verge of closure. In a school in Gadag, there are only three students and a teacher.
The government school in Bandemmanagar in Naragunda town in Gadag, has just three students. The only teacher who serves here takes these three students to school in his bike and drops them back home.
According to locals here, earlier the student strength was not so bad. Since several locals started migrating in search of jobs, the students’ strength also slowly came down. Some families moved to other places after availing housing facilities of the government.
The issue has been brought to the notice of the education department and it has directed to conduct survey in the town in this regard. The officials also said that they have discussed with transport department to provide transport facilities to the town.
