The Justice Murugesan Committee, constituted to formulate Tamil Nadu Education Policy, would submit its recommendations to the government in about two months, said former Delhi High Court Chief Justice D. Murugesan in Paramakudi in Ramanathapuram district on Thursday.
Chief Minister M.K. Stalin established the committee in April 2022 to submit a draft policy within a year. Justice Murugesan visited a government school in Kamudakudi near Paramakudi, where a public hearing was organised by School Education department officials.
Many parents and students demanded improvement in infrastructure facilities in schools and additional coaching by experts. Justice Murugesan endorsed their suggestions and explained the advantages of having libraries and internet facilities in schools. He said 95% of the panel’s work had been completed.
Ramanathapuram Chief Educational Officer Balumuthu, school headmistress Sakti and panchayat president Kavita were present.
