Open spaces instead of playgrounds at govt schools
Chandigarh, June 14 A recent survey by The Tribune team in various government schools of the city and its periphery revealed that most schools have open space in the name of playgrounds. Forget proper sports infrastructure, even playgrounds at several schools was found uneven and full of pits. At Government Senior Secondary School, Mani Majra, heaps of pebbles were seen on the playground. When asked, Sushma Sharma, sports teacher, admitted that the ground was not fit to play games. “Our sportspersons use to win medals in various disciplines, but they don’t practice here due to poor condition of the ground and courts of various disciplines, including basketball, volleyball and netball,” she said. The condition of the playground at Government Model High School, Manimajra was found worst. In absence of any maintenance, the ground was found full of sand and pebbles. The sports teacher at the school admitted that playing games in the school means just attracting the injuries. “We have written to authorities about the problem. And we are waiting for the action”, said the teacher. The condition of the playgrounds in urban areas like Sector 37 and Sector 38 was no different. While huge growth of weed was spotted at the playground of Government Model Senior Secondary School, Sector 38, the board along with basket on the basket pole was also found missing at Government Model High School, Sector 37. “One can imagine how sports can be developed in the city with such infrastructure,” said a budding athlete from GMSSS-38. Similar situation was seen at GMSSS, Sector 29, GHS, Mauli Colony, and GSSS, Ram Darbar. |
