There were two schools-one exclusively for girls and the other only for boys. When the local government passed an ordinance to strictly maintain gender equality, all such institutions had to merge and so did these two schools.
On the opening of the new co education school, the state minister addressed the audience thus:
“Friends, I am aware that some of you may regret the exclusiveness and charm of the old individual schools. Now I tell you, there are things girls can do and boys cannot and there are things that boys can do that girls cannot. But let me assure you friends, best are the things that girls and boys do together."
