Sir,
To protect social justice, governments at central and state levels have been implementing various social welfare measures. The quality of education, boarding and lodging facilities, management, cleanliness, recreative facilities, toilet facilities, and the attitude of staff at social welfare department's schools and colleges, etc are in very bad shape.
For instance, due to swallowing of the meagre funds allocated for food at these hostels, the economically and socially backward children are turning under nourished and mal nourished leading to several health hazards. Further, the medical facilities too are of sub standard. Similarly, the quality of teachers posted in such schools is of inferior leading to very low knowledge levels of children studying in social welfare department's educational institutions.
On the other hand, the country's poor cannot afford costly education at private schools and colleges.
Due to the above mentioned problems, the gap between convent educated urban, well off children and the children of weaker sections on many fronts such as knowledge levels, health,etc has been widening.
If the governments (central and state) are serious in transforming Indian society in to an egalitarian society, something concrete has to be done in this aspect.
