Karnataka's Kodagu sees govt schools shut as no students enrol despite english medium push

Despite introducing English medium sections, government schools in Kodagu district face declining student numbers, leading to the temporary closure of six schools this academic year due to zero enrolment. Over the past five years, 27 government schools have shut down, primarily due to parents' preference for private English-medium education. Authorities remain hopeful that schools will reopen if student enrolment increases.
