Education denied by ineptitude
Kashmir’s school reopening marred by disaster-prone buildings. Bureaucracy over safety, student futures ignored.

The cyclical charade of disaster-induced school closures and belated repairs in Kashmir is a damning indictment of systemic neglect. Children are not pawns in a bureaucratic game; their right to education is paramount. Prioritising reactive fixes over proactive infrastructure investment is a dereliction of duty. When will we demand accountability for this perennial failure to safeguard learning environments?
While safety is critical, prolonged closures inflict irreparable damage on learning continuity and student well-being. Flexible, immediate alternatives like temporary structures or remote learning should bridge gaps, minimising educational disruption.
