A surprise visit from S. Siddharth, the Additional Chief Secretary of the Education Department, caused a stir in Nalanda today. He was seen touring the streets and making unexpected stops at local schools. This unannounced visit included conversations with students, especially regarding their midday meals. The Education Department’s focus seems to be ensuring that schools are properly maintained and that students’ needs are being met.
During his time at the schools, S. Siddharth spoke directly with students about their well-being and the quality of their lunches. This personal interaction shows the department’s dedication to tackling issues at the most basic level. Furthermore, this visit follows reports of problems discovered by S. Siddharth, who also serves as Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister, at schools throughout the state. These findings likely motivated the need for this hands-on inspection. Clearly, school officials are now on alert due to the sudden nature of this visit.
S. Siddharth actively engaged with the students and the school environments, according to sources. This approach highlights a renewed emphasis on accountability and improvements in the education system. It also hints at potential changes and a tighter monitoring of school management and facilities in the future.
