What FACTLY found

The pictures do show a government primary school in the Sambhal district of Uttar Pradesh. However, the primary school was renovated by its school headmaster Kapil Kumar Malik in 2016, before the Yogi Adityanath government took over in 2017. Kapil Kumar spent 12 Lakhs of his own money for the renovation of this primary school in the Sambhal district
