Parents complained that these institutions are functioning without the faculty of Physics, Chemistry, Applied Mathematics, Biology, Geography, Biotechnology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Computer Science, Islamic Studies, Vedic Studies and Kashmiri.
Parents questioned the decision of authorities of opening schools in absence of  teaching staff ,they called it sheer mismanagement on part of authorities .
They appealed higher authorities to treat the problem and depute sufficient teaching staff for the bright future of students.
