Mumbai saw a school inspection conducted by the ‘School Thik Karo’ campaign, revealing several issues concerning safety, hygiene, and resource allocation at Colaba Public School. The school was found to be situated in a market building with a fish market downstairs. Key concerns included the presence of an expired fire extinguisher, overcrowding of students, lack of sanitary pads for girls, and inadequate distribution of essential supplies such as protein bars, shoes, and kits.
Additionally, teachers have been seeking sanitary pads from the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) for the past five months. The inspection also noted that CCTV cameras were absent, water tanks were not regularly cleaned, and the school lacked a principal during the time of the inspection. These findings have raised questions about the adequacy of the school's infrastructure, safety equipment, hygiene facilities, and the timely distribution of resources to students.
