A government-run middle school with three teachers is running without any students in Dharukheri village, Agar Malwa district in Madhya Pradesh.
The village has a population of around 1000 residents and most of the children in the village have enrolled into private schools. Mostly, Children of the Scheduled Tribes and Scheduled Castes enroll into government schools in the village, thus the upper caste people avoid sending their children to the government schools.
