Severe Waterlogging Outside School and Hospital in Machadi Village, Todabhim

In Machadi village of Todabhim, Karauli district, severe waterlogging has developed outside the Government Senior Secondary School and Primary Health Center. Due to continuous rainfall, the main access road is completely submerged. School children are forced to wade through knee-deep water, affecting their safety and studies.

Local youth Keli Khokad and other villagers stated that this problem recurs every monsoon. Despite repeated complaints to the administration, no permanent solution has been implemented so far. Children often slip and fall in the water, damaging their books and school uniforms.

Residents and parents organized a protest, standing in the waterlogged area outside the school. They reported that several passersby have also slipped and sustained injuries. The protestors demanded swift action from the SDM to resolve the issue.

The protest saw participation from Harimohan Member, Kaduram, Somotya, Chhotelal, Ramjilal, Prakash, Sardar, Mahendra Meena, Rameshwar, Battilal Yogi, Dharm Singh Meena, Jagmohan, Gopi Sahay, Shriman, Ramdas, and many other villagers.
