Poor enrolment in 191 govt primary schools of 19 U.P. districts

Enrolment of students in Class 1 in 191 government primary schools across 19 districts in India is poor, with hardly four or less students taking admission. The Basic Education Department is focusing on School Chalo Abhiyan, but this has not improved enrolment. The department conducted a survey under the School Readiness drive, which revealed the poor enrolment, and has sought clarification from the district officials. The government provides free textbooks, uniforms, shoes and mid-day meals, but still, there are very few takers for government schools.
