1 in 7 schools here has an issue in the government’s record
1.6× the Pudukkottai average (1 in 11)
Every school here is on this list for one reason: its own UDISE+ 2024-25 return shows no working girls’ toilet. The rest of its record is listed beside it.

The government’s own UDISE+ 2024-25 record lists more than a missing toilet at these 16 schools. Every school counted below is one of those 16 — not the rest of Gandarvakkottai.
The sitting members for the assembly seats these schools fall in. Listed because they are who to ask — not as a claim that they caused it.
