The
Parent Teacher Associations (PTAs) constituted in
schools in Madhya Pradesh are playing a laudable role
in the management of schools.
The
PTA has resolved a chronic problem of drinking water
in the school of Gokul Gram Loni in Burhanpur
district. Drinking water was transported to the
village although there are two handpumps in the
school. The ground water level in them considerably
went down with the result the water source was dried
up.
Under
the announcement made in the Prime Minister's Scheme,
the PTA installed a handpump by contributing their ten
percent share in view of the examinations during the
March-April and got the work done on priority basis.
Following
the efforts made by the PTA now sufficient drinking
water is being supplied in the school. There are 304
students in the higher secondary school, 124 students
in the middle school, 89 in the girls middle school
and 25 students in the Anganwadi situated in the
premises of the school. Now, these children have
neither to bring water bottles from homes nor they
have to wait for the water tanker.
