June 14, 2024 by ETV BHARATH MONITORING (EB MONITORING)

The most recent cases are from government schools in Jaipurs Jamwa Ramgarh block. The number of ration packets received by these schools was less than that of the number of students enrolled. This has resulted in irregularities and parents have started complaining.

Ration is being supplied for July 2020 to March 2021. Students who were enrolled in July 2020 were taken into consideration, but the ones who took admission later are yet to be considered for the distribution.
