Teachers: Students come to school only for mid-day meal, so we too dont teach!

My name is Neelu Dahiya. I am calling from Rewa in Madhya Pradesh. Today I went to visit a highschool and found that only in one class there was some education going on but rest of the children were loitering around and the teachers were reading newspaper on the sun. When I asked the teachers they said the students come to school only for mid-day meal. I did not find the teachers interested in teaching at all. This should change.
