For achieving equality and justice, education was seen as one of the main strategies. However, over the years, central and state governments have created special categories of schools that have better infrastructural and human resources compared to regular government schools.

Therefore, by creating a stratified system, the government sustains inequality, violating values enshrined in the Constitution.<span> </span></span></p> |
