Rs 18 Lakh New Building Planned After ‘School Thik Karo’ Campaign
Authorities demolished an unsafe government school building in Jaipur after the Cockroach Janata Party highlighted its poor condition, with a new Rs 18 lakh building planned.
Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) members last month was razed by authorities, officials said on Wednesday.The old building of Government Primary School, Rampura (Kanwarpura), was bulldozed in the presence of district administration and education department officials.
"The building has been demolished," an official said.
The school had been declared dilapidated and unsafe following a technical survey in September 2025 and was subsequently taken out of use.
The Rajasthan government last month announced that a new school building would soon be built at Rs 18 lakh.
Of the corpus, Rs 12 lakh was sanctioned from the District Mineral Foundation Trust (DMFT) on August 13 and another Rs 6 lakh from the MLA fund.
The school hit the headlines after a CJP team visited Rampura village last month as part of its 'School Thik Karo' campaign to highlight the condition of government schools.
The visit led to a confrontation between CJP members and villagers and FIRs from both sides. The CJP alleged that BJP workers had attacked its members, while villagers accused the visiting group of intimidating residents and creating a ruckus.
