Raju Kumar from Nawada village in Semaria block of Chatra district in Jharkhand is talking to the only teacher in the high school, Mr Ashok Singh. Mr Singh also works as headmaster. He is supported by 3 para teachers. He tells him that there is so much administrative work for him that he can not even complete them and the education of children is suffering.
