TIRUCHI A young student of the Panchayat Union Middle School, Koppampatti has written a letter to the Chief Minister and the School Education Minister seeking their intervention in conducting extra-curricular classes in rural government schools. These classes would provide an all-around development for the students, the child said. M.V. Mahapatanjali, a Class 5 student, took it upon himself to convey the needs of the students in Koppampatti, Thuraiyur after attending various Grama Sabha meetings. "My father is a regular attendee and I would accompany him to these meetings and see people voicing out their problems and seeking resolution. I realised that the Chief Minister is our representative and I could express our needs to him," he said.
