(रीवा) इटहा ग्राम की प्राथमिक पाठशाला हुई बंद - पचासों हरिजन-आदिवासी क्षात्र शिक्षा से वंचित (प्रधानमंत्री जी के नाम पत्र)

नमस्कार ! 
                  यह पत्र/आवेदन आज हमारे द्वारा श्रीमान प्रधानमंत्री महोदय भारत सरकार के लिए पी.जी. पोर्टल के माध्यम से भेजा गया है. इस पत्र में हमारे द्वारा प्रधानमंत्री जी से माग की गयी है की ग्राम पंचायत कैथा अंतर्गत आने वाले इटहा ग्राम की प्राथमिक शाला को न बंद किया जाये. क्योंकि अभी हाल ही में रीवा जिला शिक्षा विभाग द्वारा यह प्राथमिक शाला को बच्चों की कम संख्या बताकर बंद करवा दिया गया. अब वहां का सरपंच और 354A का आरोपी संत कुमार पटेल इस स्कूल में शासकीय रासन की दूकान रखने वाला है. ज्ञातव्य हो की इस प्राथमिक शाला में उस गाँव की आंगनवाडी केंद्र का भी सञ्चालन हो रहा है जिसकी आंगनवाडी कार्यकर्ता के साथ दुष्कृत्य के प्रयास का मामला पहले से ही थाना गढ़ में संत कुमार पटेल और उसके दो अन्य साथियों रुक्मणी पटेल और सुग्रीव पटेल के नाम से एफ.आई.आर. क्र. 96/16 से थाना गढ़ में दर्ज है.

           वास्तव में देखा जाए तो इटहा शा. प्राथमिक शाला को बंद करवाने का प्रयास 354A का आरोपी संत कुमार पटेल का ही है जिसको की रीवा के शिक्षा विभाग ने कैसे मान लिया बड़े ही ताजुब की बात है. सरकार और समाज के प्रयास ऐसे चल रहे हैं की ज्यादा से ज्यादा विकास की योजनायें ग्रामों में और पिछड़े क्षेत्रों में लाई जाएँ और शिक्षा विभाग का यह कदम की जो पहले से संचालित शिक्षण संस्था थी उसको बंद करवाया जा रहा है बड़ा ही दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण है. हम सब प्रधानमन्त्री/मुख्यमंत्री जी से अपील करेंगे की शिक्षा की गुणवत्ता सुधरने के प्रयास किये जाएँ और जहां कमी हो उसको पूरा किया जाए. पहले से संचालित शिक्षण संस्थान को बंद करवाने से कुछ नहीं होगा बल्कि इसका उल्टा नकारात्मक ही प्रभाव पड़ेगा.

To,                                                                                              Date:-01/07/2016
The Prime Minister of India                                                   Place:- REWA/Bhopal, MP
Govt. of India, New Delhi. INDIA.

Subject – In favor of the School students of  Govt. Iteha Primary School. To reopen the Govt primary school Iteha. Iteha school building should not be misused for Govt Kota (Govt controlled ration shop). 
               
सन्दर्भ  - जिला रीवा अंतर्गत गंगेव ब्लाक की ग्राम पंचायत कैथा की शासकीय प्राथमिक पाठशाला इटहा को क्षात्रों के हित में पुनः खुलवाने विषयक और स्कूल भवन का दुरूपयोग शासकीय रासन की दूकान आदि के रूप में न करने विषयक.

Sir/Madam,

                We would like to bring in your kind attention that Kaitha Sarpanch and IPC 354A accused Sant Kumar Patel (resident of Iteha) has forcibly closed the Govt. Primary School Iteha (that comes under Shankul kendra Amiliya). Now it is planned that the School building would be used for the Govt. Kota which is ethically and legally not right activity.

We have the following points/reasons to support that Govt primary school - Iteha should not be shut down forever:

1)      According to the Govt of India/MP schemes every village should have its own schooling system for the students of that village area. So that there should not be any problems for the primary level students to travel far and wide for getting good primary education. In that sense Iteha Govt Primary school was well located in right place and at the Centre of the Iteha village. The entire Iteha village consisting of about more than 800 of the residents.

2)      Almost all Harijan-Adivasi (SC/ST) children of the village area used to go to the school and were getting primary level education. In this sense Harijan-Adivasi of the Iteha village were very happy that their small children under the class of 5th level were getting education at their doorsteps.

3)      Apart from the Harijan-Adivasi students other many villagers (mostly Patel groups) has enrolled their children to that school as well.

4)      Apart from the primary school also the Anganwadi Kendra was hosted/operated by this Govt. primary school building thus providing good space and security to the 50s of small under age of 5 years of the village children at the Anganwadi in that Primary school building.

5)      Usually from perspective of the RTE (Right to Education Act) if a school has already been opened in a village/locality what the govt and district level school administration should do is to try all possible ways to provide good and quality education to the students. If sometimes there are negative outcomes such as the enrollment of the less number of the student’s or some problems from the surrounding, in that case what district school administration should do is to try to sort out such problems. But certainly shutting down an already good functioning school is NOT a right thing to do. This will be unfortunate for the school students and village students for not having a school in their village area.

6)      Sometimes it was reported that the Govt Iteha primary school’s teacher and headmaster used to come drunk in school. This matter was reported earlier and also I have myself complained this issue in written to the BEO Gangev as well as CM Helpline of the Govt of Madhya Pradesh. But there was need to take punitive and disciplinary action against those of guilty teachers and headmasters of the school and certainly it’s not the right decision to shut down the Iteha primary school.

7)      Now in the absence of the primary school in Iteha the Harijan-Adivasi (SC/ST) children of the Iteha village are forced to travel far and wide to get the right education. They are forced to travel one kilometer farther distance to the Govt. Primary school KAITHA and about 3 KM farther distance to travel to Govt. Higher Secondary School Amiliya. If there would still have been a school in their own village these small and poor students would have not been forced to travel far away to get education.

8)      (Kaitha Panchayat Sarpanch Sant Kumar Patel has criminal record) – It’s unfortunate that the district administration has shut down the Iteha school upon the recommendation of a sarpanch who already has criminal record of IPC 354A, 294, 506 and 34 against the same women Anganwadi teacher who teaches in the same school building. It is therefore apparently clear that Sarpanch sant Kumar Patel is using his sarpanch post to torture and blackmail Iteha Anganwadi worker Mrs. Rajkumari Patel W/o Shri Sugriv Prasad Patel (resident of Iteha village). Please refer to the PG Portal Complaints to the PMO and also application No. 1360 and 1361 dated 24-05-2016. By doing so Sarpanch Sant Kumar Patel is trying to force Anganwadi worker of Iteha to move away from the Govt. Primary school building Iteha and thus not only the school will be shut down the Anganwadi center will also be shut down after sometimes. Since this 354A accused Sarpanch of Kaitha panchayat is trying to transfer the Kota from Akalsi to the Iteha Govt. School building.In this way the problem will not just be only for the school students who lost their school but the problem will also be to those of the Anganwadi children.

9)      (Sarpanch Sant Kumar Patel of Kaitha is using machines and JCB for the Panchayati work of MGNREGA) – Even there have been more corruptions in Panchayati work of Kaitha Panchayat in Gangev block Rewa. I have myself complaints several times with photos and videos of these corrupted activities however it’s unfortunate that no actions been so far taken in these front.

Therefore looking into several points/issues narrated above and given the criminal characteristics of the present Kaitha Panchayat sarpanch Sant Kumar Patel such recommendations ofn shutting down and closing of the already running primary educational institutions should NOT be entertained. This will be unfortunate for the Iteha students, for the people who favors to avail the good educations to the doorsteps and even unfortunate for the Govt of MP/India itself that in one place Govt using so much of the National/International/NGO and other funds to promote the good and quality education for each and every one in remote and far, and in other place its shutting down already functioning/running schools and institutions. It is now clear that with these policies people will be given the clear and direct message that Govt itself is trying to marginalize the villagers and sending the clear message that villagers are now forced by the Govt itself to escape to better places such as in city areas and developed and elite areas. In this way Govt is trying to distinguish/differentiate more on the basis of poor and rich, giving more preference to city dwellers than the villagers, and trying to send the message to the villagers that their quality and work is not good and they must go far away to city areas and other more developed areas to get the good life and good education. That’s what is now clear from the Govt’s policies and attitude.

                   Last but not the least now that what would be said in this case that Govt must NOT shut down already running/functioning schools and institutions rather it should set an independent committee and try to find out what are those basic reasons and what are those causes that’s forcing the villagers to escape in other places in search of good life and good education. Govt should itself try to provide the good and quality education even in the village areas schools and should also give timely good training to the school teachers. There must be an independent supervising team made of NGO members, good retired teachers, educational activists and other educated and social workers to inquire and find out what are those things which can improve village living and education better and Govt. should try to implement all such recommendations.

                Certainly it’s bad idea to shut down already functioning schools in village areas. It’s against the basic human rights of the students and children of that locality. This is like violating the basic human rights of the village students to get good and quality education and education at their doorsteps. We all oppose to this move of the education dept./Govt and we request to reopen the Govt primary school at Iteha as soon as possible so that the village students can get good and basic educations and their doorsteps.
On behalf of all educationist and villagers of the Iteha locality (Gangev block Rewa) we demand you Mr. prime Minister to reopen this school and hope that this Iteha primary school will be reopened fast, in favor of, and in the benefit of the Iteha villagers and students. Thank You!
