The toilets are in a bad condition. Drinking water is also unsafe. Canteen facilities are not available. Basic services like libraries or the internet are also missing.


Rahul saidstudents coming from marginalized communities are not getting scholarships on time after matriculation. Citing the example of bihar, rahul claimed in his letter that the scholarship portal remained stalled for three years. No student received a scholarship in 2021-22.
