  "account": "The Rajasthan government has ordered the construction of a new school building at Rampura, following a violent protest involving the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) during a visit to a dilapidated government school in the village. The order was issued late on Saturday night, with work set to commence on September 1, 2026. The government has allocated ₹18 lakh for the project, funded by the District Mineral Foundation Trust (₹12 lakh) and an MLA fund (₹6 lakh). This development is part of a broader plan by the Rajasthan government to overhaul infrastructure in government schools across the state. The three-year roadmap, with an estimated expenditure of ₹12,500 crore, aims to transform government schools into safe, well-equipped, modern, inclusive, and technology-enabled learning centers. The plan includes constructing 3,587 new school buildings, 83,783 new classrooms, repairing 22,589 schools, and building 13,616 new toilet complexes. The CJP praised the government's decision as a \"major victory\" for its campaign, while party co-convener Ashutosh Ranka urged the Chief Minister to prepare alternative arrangements for students studying in \"dilapidated conditions.\"",
