Text books must be handed to schools on time

Recently the Goa Samagra Shiksha has taken the decision to ask heads of schools to collect text books and store them in the classroom to be used by students for next year which is provided free to students of class I to VIII  under the Right to Education Act. I believe that most of the books may be in good condition but the question is have all the students returned their text books to schools?  It is reported that only few students returned their text books to school. Last year the school started but the students had to wait for text books as the government delayed supplying the books on time and sent it to school after a month.  This year government has to clear the confusion which they have created and see that all the text books are supplied to the schools well in advance. Requesting the government of Goa, CM and Goa Samagra Shiksha department to look into his matter and solve the issue before the schools reopen.
