India Is Losing Schools but That's Not the Biggest Problem #indianeducation #governmentschools

India lost an average of 13 government schools a day last year, according to UDISE+ 2025-26 data from the Ministry of Education.

Government school enrollment fell by nearly 86 lakh students in two years, while private schools gained about 88 lakh.

But here's the contradiction: India's total school enrollment still fell overall.

With thousands of government schools reporting zero students and more than 20,000 teachers still posted there, what does this tell us about India's education system?
