Abhijeet Dipke said ministers, MLAs and MPs should send their children to village schools for a day and walk like rural students.

Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke on Tuesday said education department officials should be required to send their children to government schools, arguing that this would force the system to improve.
