Rain Soaked Textbooks Expose India's Education Woes A viral clip showing hundreds of soaked textbooks spread out on a schoolyard in Madhya Pradesh's Dhar district has highlighted the pitiful state of public education in rural India.
The visuals, which depict children carefully checking through wet pages to assess their dryness, are distressing. But what's even more alarming is that this is not an isolated incident.
The leaky tin roof at Government Primary School, Surajpura, has been a persistent problem for years, with rainwater regularly seeping in and ruining textbooks stored in the kitchen.
