Imphal, April 28 2012:
Although the state government has procured audio-meter machine for installation at the Government Deaf and Mute School which is located at Takyelpat under Social Welfare Department, the students have not been able to reap the benefit from the machine as there is no sound proof room in their school.
According to a reliable source, the Audio-Meter Machine was brought to the Government Deaf and Mute School around two years back, but so far no sound proof room for installation of the machine has been constructed in the school, thus rendering it useless.
The machine is supposed to be used for monitoring the level of hearing capacity of the students studying in the school, but the students have not been able to get any benefit out of it as there is no proper sound proof room where this test could be conducted, the source added.
There are around 100 students in different classes of the school.
