  "account": "In a bid to highlight the conditions of schools in tribal regions of Rajasthan, the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) has launched the \"Adivasi School Theek Karo\" campaign. This initiative coincides with the Rajasthan government's month-long celebration marking Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday, where schools and colleges are being illuminated to mark the occasion.\n\nCJP's campaign, titled \"Adivasi School Theek Karo\" or \"Fix Tribal Schools,\" is set to kick off in the Udaipur division on Friday. The team will commence visits to schools the following day, with plans to extend the initiative to other tribal areas across the state.\n\nThe organization's national convener, Ashutosh Ranka, emphasized that the campaign aims to draw attention to the substandard infrastructure and facilities in tribal schools. Ranka stated that the government's decision to light an \"Aashirwad ka Diya\" in schools and colleges during the PM's birthday celebration will provide an opportunity for CJP to shed light on the real situation of these schools.\n\nThis campaign is the second phase of CJP's \"School Theek Karo\" initiative, which has reportedly audited over 15,000 schools nationwide, including more than 500 in Rajasthan. The team will visit schools in tribal-populated areas of Udaipur, Dungarpur, Banswara, Jhalawar, Sirohi, and Baran-Anta, among others.\n\nThe primary objective of the campaign is to not only assess the condition of schools but also to bring the issue to the public's notice. Ranka reiterated that the campaign will expand beyond Rajasthan to tribal areas of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, and the northeastern states.\n\nThe organization seeks active participation from locals in identifying problems related to schools and colleges, highlighting basic issues such as education, healthcare, roads, and employment in tribal regions. Ranking underlined the persistent inadequacy of public facilities, even 80 years after independence, citing instances of children studying in unsuitable spaces near cattle sheds.",
