Who it hurts: Families and teachers at government schools in Arunachal Pradesh with damaged or inadequate buildings.
The moment: Another term begins in a school that needs renovation, with no word on whether the proposal has been approved or funded.
What people do today: Student unions raise the issue through protests and shutdowns, and the Education Department answers that proposals have been submitted or are at an advanced stage.
Why it's unsolved: Repair proposals move between the Education and Planning departments, and their status is not published school by school.
What solved looks like: A public tracker of school repair and upgrade proposals in Arunachal Pradesh, showing for each school what was requested, its approval and funding status, and the expected start and finish dates, with a way for parents and teachers to add photos of conditions.

Evidence

Every claim is tied to the source it comes from

The Hindu: Shutdown over poor school infra paralyses Arunachal capital (Sept 2026) ↗

1A 12-hour shutdown over poor school infrastructure affected normal life in Itanagar on September 24, 2026.
2The student union called the shutdown over issues including renovation of 56 identified schools and a dedicated school for children with special needs in Pakke Kessang district.
3According to the State Education Department, several infrastructure proposals have been submitted to the Planning Department.
4The government said several renovation and upgrading projects were either ready or at an advanced stage of implementation.

Builders still need to know

Which 56 schools are on the list, and would the Education Department publish it with the status of each?
Can UDISE+ data on school buildings be used to show conditions school by school?
Would head teachers update progress themselves if the tracker were simple enough?
