Jaipur, Nov 15 (IANS) Rajasthan’s Education and Panchayati Raj Minister and Minister in-charge of Jodhpur and Phalodi districts Madan Dilawar on Saturday conducted a surprise inspection of two government schools in Jodhpur’s Mandore area. Government officials gave this information.
His sudden arrival created panic among the staff and students.

After this he reached the Government Higher Secondary School located at Phool Bagh, where the morning assembly prayers were already going on.
Standing quietly behind the students, the minister observed the proceedings before joining the children in singing the national anthem.
He also listened to the students’ daily views and news presentations, praising their discipline and the orderly conduct of the assembly.
During the visit, the Minister reviewed the milk distribution process under the nutrition program and appreciated the smooth system.
He said the school regularly plays the national anthem during the morning assembly and then five minutes before school, calling it a good practice.

The minister called the school principal on the spot and directed him to get the cleaning and repair work done immediately.
He directed the Education Department officials to ensure proper hygiene standards and maintain school facilities regularly, stressing that cleanliness should be given priority in all government schools.
