4 years ago Mcgm started Mumbai Public  School (English) for poor and low income category students.Mcgm in a few time success to increase the students number but as a tradition they again fail to provide basic infrastructure and Teaching staff. Today One Teachers handling 75 students though ratio should 32:1 as per norms of RTE. Its revealed by a query filed by Anil Galgali.

Athak Seva Sangh Chairman Anil Galgali ask to the Mcgm Education department that how many Mumbai Public School are started and the procedure of sanction of said school. Education department Mumbai Public School Project Chief and Social Development Officer Hanmant Gaikwad said that 59 school already started out of 84. 40 school run by bmc and 19 by NGO. Peru Compound and Swadeshi Mill School are till not started. Its in  under process. As per RTE  norms 42 Head Master required but till no Head Master appointed nor a single peon. Totol number of students is 16, 279 in 57 school.  Also interesting that  497 Teacher are required as per RTE and available only 216. Anil Galgali said that as per RTE norms a ratio of should be fixed. For 32 students 1 Teacher is required and ratio should 32:1  but now as per information available by Education Department ratio is 75:1 .

Anil Galgali wrote to Municipal Commissioner Sitaram Kunte and demand to take action on responsible officer who igonerd the RTE  and provide Head Master, Teachers and Peons.  September month is start but till 2 MPS are not started due to delay tatics of Bmc Education Officer, say Galgali. Anil Galgali blame that through out Mumbai area, this new MPS has attracted the low income group and demand is more to open extra classes but some bmc officer's under the pressure of serval politician's become hurdle in free English Education.
