Despite Odisha government's claims of transforming numerous schools through its 5T initiative, students and teachers of several educational institutions continue to struggle because of the inappropriate road connectivity.Lack of proper road infrastructure compels students and teachers in some areas to totter through muddy paths to access their schools.A relatable example is Divya Jeevan High School at Kandasar village in Banarpal block of Angul district, which underwent transformation under the State's 5T initiative. In spite of the transformation, the school remains inaccessible due to the absence of a reliable road network.
