Official CJP account framed the decision as direct impact of the ongoing School Thik Karo campaign that documented infrastructure gaps across multiple states including Rajasthan and Maharashtra.
"After Rajasthan, the Uttar Pradesh government has now approved ₹604 crore to rebuild and repair primary and upper primary schools. We are changing India, one state at a time."
