According to the school’s principal Motiram Budha, the storm caused damage estimated at around Rs. 800,000 to 1 million.
Parents have become increasingly worried after the school, which was built through years of struggle, local voluntary labor, the hard work of guardians, and support from the community, was reduced to ruins due to the natural disaster.
“The government policy is to conduct classes five days a week. The children’s studies had only recently started becoming regular again, but then this disaster struck. Now we are facing difficulties regarding where and how to continue classes for the children,” Principal Budha said.
