Uttar Pradesh to Merge Schools with Fewer than 50 Students into Nearby Institutions

The Uttar Pradesh government plans to merge schools with fewer than 50 students to enhance the education system’s functionality. Students from these schools will be moved to nearby institutions. Officials have been instructed to prioritize a review of primary schools for potential mergers, considering various factors such as distance, facilities, and transportation. Additionally, a private school in Aligarh faces scrutiny for allegedly threatening students, but an investigation revealed the claims to be unfounded.
