Chief Minister Singh mentioned that his administration will use alternative management to create an environment for education and training until land is available for building a school building. “Acquiring Guthi land in Janakpurdham will be difficult, so we should immediately operate and teach an alternative school for the visually impaired in a building of an organization for the disabled,” Minister Singh said.
