Karnataka boosts education budget in 2024, but schools still struggle

New Indian Express  

BENGALURU: As Karnataka heads into the 2025 budget, the key question is: Has last year’s Rs 44,422 crore allocation for the education department brought any real improvement? In 2024, the state government earmarked 12% of its total education expenditure, increasing funds by Rs 6,800 crore from Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s interim budget in July 2023. The last budget also promised Rs 50 crore to improve science and computer labs and provide internet in government high schools with higher enrollment. In the 2024 budget, the education department introduced Navu Manujaru, a two-hour weekly class designed to foster scientific temper and social harmony.
