A viral campaign FixTheSchool is exposing the shocking neglect of India’s government schools—crumbling buildings, unsafe classrooms, and unusable toilets are forcing students to fight for basic learning conditions. With education funding stuck at just 4% of GDP (far below the recommended 6%), tens of thousands of public schools have shut down as enrollment shifts to private institutions. Activists and students are using social media to document these failures, sparking local action—and drawing parallels to national exam scandals, revealing a deeper systemic crisis. Teachers are pulled from classrooms for non-teaching duties, and underprivileged kids, with no private school options, bear the brunt of this educational neglect.
