My name is Umesh Turi. I am the deputy village headman in Mohda (in Dhanbad district in Jharkhand). In my village school there are only 3 teachers for 9 classes and there is no plan to send anyone. So students are leaving as the standard of education is falling. Out of these 3, two are teachers for Urdu language which is not taught in the school! I request officials and leaders to look into the matter so the students do not suffer. For more Turi Ji can be reached at 09798545001
