Adding to this, CJP's Saurav Das criticised the Rekha Gupta-led Delhi government over the state of schools in Sanjay Colony. (Reuters/ANI) CJP co-convenor Saurav Das shared he inspected the schools as part of the group's “School Thik Karo” campaign. He claimed that residents of Sanjay Colony had given the government until September 15 to begin the promised work on the schools.

Meanwhile, In posts on X, the CJP's official account and Saurav Das criticised the BJP-led Delhi government over the state of schools in Sanjay Colony. They alleged that the premises were filled with garbage and that children were being forced to study in poor conditions.

Notably, “The people of Sanjay Colony have decided 15 September as the deadline for the promised work to begin. We won’t act as silent spectators anymore. Get this started before the deadline, else, we will be back,” the CJP wrote on X.

As per the latest buzz, Das, in his post on X, shared Gupta had visited Sanjay Colony in Chhatarpur in February. Six months later, he shared, “A great river of garbage welcomes school children”.

In further updates, “The school that you promised you will fix, will construct a new one, is lying in shambles. The local villagers only demand a proper school for their Nursery to 12th std children,” he wrote.

On top of that, Das shared he conducted an audit of the school as part of the CJP campaign. He alleged major safety concerns and that students lacked basic facilities.

“I found both the MCD school and Delhi Govt school with tin roofs, no flooring, garbage everywhere, terrible mid-day meal, no access to computers or libraries, toilets either not built or in pathetic conditions,” he wrote.
