Abhijeet Dipke Launches 'School Thik Karo' Campaign for Rural Schools; Here's Why
Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke is launching the 'School Thik Karo' campaign on August 15. The initiative seeks to improve neglected infrastructure - such as water, power, and sanitation - in rural government schools through community-led social audits and direct engagement with local village leadership to ensure better facilities for students.
Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke has announced the launch of a nationwide grassroots initiative titled the "School Thik Karo" campaign. Scheduled to kick off on August 15, India's 80th Independence Day, the campaign aims to address and improve the neglected infrastructure of government schools in rural areas. The announcement highlights growing civil society concerns over the disparity in educational facilities between urban centres and rural villages.
Focus on Rural Infrastructure and Accountability
Speaking on the state of rural education, Dipke emphasised that children in villages continue to face systemic challenges decades after independence. He called upon parents, local citizens, and village leaders to take collective moral responsibility for upgrading basic amenities such as clean drinking water, electricity, functional toilets, and proper classrooms.

"Kids in villages shouldn't be pleading for basic facilities at school after 80 years of Independence," Dipke shared in a post on the social media platform X. "As a country, we have failed rural kids in the worst possible way. This Independence Day, CJP will launch the ‘School Thik Karo' campaign to improve government schools in villages," he added. Dipke also questioned government spending priorities, drawing comparisons between high-profile national projects and the condition of grassroots institutions. "We have made a new Parliament, a new PM house. Why have we not been able to build new schools in our villages? Do we not consider the children of farmers and labourers the future of our country?" he asked.

Execution and Grassroots Strategy
The campaign relies heavily on community-led action and social audits. As part of the rollout, parents and local residents are encouraged to document missing or inadequate facilities using photographs and structured data forms to highlight institutional gaps.

Dipke stated that he will personally launch the initiative from his home village of Hingoli in Maharashtra’s Marathwada region by formally approaching the local sarpanch to request immediate improvements to the village schools. The campaign also aims to recognize and honor model sarpanches who take proactive steps to transform their local educational infrastructure.
