TINSUKIA: The Assam Chah Mazdoor Sangha (ACMS) has expressed concern over closure of primary schools in tea gardens during past one-and-a half years due to pandemic that resulted extreme academic loss to tea garden students. Though students of urban schools maintained some contacts with books either through offline or online, the students of garden schools, on the other hand were completely deprived of their basic rights to education, alleged ACMS vice president Raju Sahu. In a press release, Sahu stated that as academic atmosphere simply did not prevail in most of the gardens, it remained to be uncertain whether the garden students would be back to school after it reopened. At the backdrop of this situation, he urged the government and various organisations like ATTSA, AASA, ACMS, Mahila Samiti, and garden management to bear responsibility of sending students to schools besides garden school teachers should organise door-to-door campaign and awareness programme to motivate the guardians.
