1 in 14 schools here has an issue in the government’s record
2.5× the Tenkasi average (1 in 35)
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 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.
