The odd part
The Department of Education finally finds a way to make books profitable—by selling them to the local scrap dealer before students can read them.
What happened
Authorities in Bahraich discovered that thousands of textbooks meant for underprivileged students in Class 1-8 had successfully 'graduated' directly to a scrap shop. Instead of the classrooms, the books were found at a local 'Kabadiwala,' proving that the administration believes the weight of knowledge is best measured in rupees per kilo. It’s a revolutionary pedagogical shift: why read a book when you can sell it and buy snacks instead?
