 Bhanupratappur. Rivers and streams are overflowing due to continuous rain in Chhattisgarh. Children are going to school risking their lives. In the last 15 days, 10 people have died in Kanker district due to drowning in rivers and streams. Let us tell you that the children of Rani Dongri Primary School of Bhanupratappur block of Kanker district cross the river 3 km away to go to Gawade Para School. Crossing this river to get education is no less than a big challenge, but it is a compulsion for the parents and children. They are going to school risking their lives.

The demand for a bridge on this river has been made for many years but the government is not paying any attention. In the public hearing of the former CM in Bhanupratappur in the previous government, the villagers had also demanded a bridge. Apart from school children, this is a big problem for patients as well. Let us tell you that Gavde Para remains an island throughout the rainy season.

The government needs to consider the demands of the villagers and provide primary education to the children. The villagers of the area say that the bridge should be constructed soon. How will you progress if you study like this?
