Mandal Parishad Elementary School in Kumburla village is three kms away from here. Moreover, there is no proper way to go to Kumburla. The villagers of Jajulu Bandha said that they cannot send their children through the high hills, stones and thorns to go there.

All the villagers joined hands and appealed to the ITDA authorities to show mercy on their children who are deprived of education due to lack of school and to establish an elementary school in their village and contribute to the future of the children.
