TMC demands Govt to take decisive action to address challenges faced by education sector

Syllad | The Rising MeghalayaJuly 9, 2023

TMC youth leader Richard Marak on Sunday said it is unacceptable that Meghalaya chief minister Conrad Sangma has repeatedly claimed that education is a top priority for the government, yet the state continues to rank at the bottom of the Ministry of Education’s Performance Grading Index. 

This is a clear indication that the NPP led MDA government has failed to deliver on their promise to prioritize education, Marak said in a statement.

He said the MDA government must be held accountable for their inaction and lack of commitment towards improving the education sector. 

It is unacceptable that students in Meghalaya are suffering due to the government’s negligence and failure to provide high-quality educational opportunities.

“We demand immediate and decisive action from the government to address the challenges facing the education sector. This includes increasing funding, improving teacher training and support, and promoting greater community involvement in education,” Marak said.

“The future of our state depends on the quality of education we provide to our students, and the government must deliver on their promise to make education a top priority in Meghalaya,” he added.
