Constructing a new building for Ghatokchar school

Ghatokchar High School is a 60-year old educational institution located in Madaripur Sadar. Constructed at the initiative of Wajuddin Dhali, a chairman of Kendua Union Parishad, in 1963, the school has produced a good number of graduates. And it has been playing an important role in spreading the light of education in the southern part of Bangladesh. However, the building of this school is not in a good condition. It is old and its eastern and northern parts are the most damaged ones. Most of the students cannot concentrate and remain distracted during the classes as they keep staring at the ceiling to watch out when the plaster falls off. When it rains, their school building's roof leaks, and the plaster falls below. There are also big cracks in the ceiling. Sometimes accidents occur when the damaged plaster falls on the students. More than 2,000 students are now attending classes in the dilapidated building. And more than 30 teachers are risking their lives while teaching them.
The school receives all kinds of government benefits including MPO (monthly payment order). The SSC result of this school is very good in Madaripur district. The school is also used as a centre for various public examinations including SSC. But the school building is crumbling down and it can collapse any moment. We urge the authorities concerned to construct a new building for this renowned school otherwise there could be an accident anytime.
