Fake School in Rajkot

A purported school operating without any accreditation was busted in Rajkot. The school named Gauri Pre-Primary School was found to be running in a shop in the Maliyasan Pipaliya village of Kuvadva.

The school has been operating for the past six years, housing students from Classes 1 to 10. This bogus school was busted when one of its students was not issued a leaving certificate.

The school operator, RC Dhaduk, has claimed that it was not a school but a tuition class. However, he did answer questions regarding the school issuing fake results.

Education department officials, upon learning of this, sealed the school. The police have also been informed about the matter.

Questions are also being raised about the functioning of the education department.
