Maharashtra Tribal Schools: CJP Launches ‘Adivasi School Thik Karo’ Campaign

Maharashtra tribal schools have come under scrutiny after Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke announced the launch of the ‘Adivasi School Thik Karo’ campaign, raising concerns over infrastructure, food quality, healthcare and safety facilities in Ashram schools.

Speaking about the campaign, Dipke alleged that several schools attended by tribal children lack basic facilities required for a safe and effective learning environment. He also raised concerns about reported child deaths in Maharashtra's Ashram schools and alleged shortcomings in the food and healthcare arrangements provided to students.

The claims were made by Dipke while announcing the campaign and have not been independently established in the statement provided.

Maharashtra Tribal Schools Targeted Under New Campaign

The Maharashtra tribal schools campaign announced by Abhijeet Dipke focuses on improving conditions in Ashram schools serving tribal communities.

Dipke said the CJP is launching the ‘Adivasi School

Thik Karo’ campaign to draw attention to the condition of schools attended by tribal children.

According to him, some of these institutions lack adequate infrastructure and are unsuitable for providing students with proper learning conditions.

CJP Raises Concerns Over School Infrastructure

Dipke criticised the alleged lack of basic facilities in some Ashram schools. He claimed that the condition of certain schools is so poor that they do not provide an environment conducive to education.

He used strong language to highlight what he described as inadequate facilities and called for improvements in the infrastructure available to tribal students.

The campaign, according to Dipke, seeks to place the educational needs of tribal children at the centre of public discussion.

Abhijeet Dipke Raises Concerns Over Child Deaths
A major part of Dipke's statement concerned deaths among children in Maharashtra's Ashram schools.

He claimed that more than 590 children have died in Ashram schools across Maharashtra over the last two years. Dipke linked the alleged deaths to issues including poor-quality food and inadequate facilities.
