Caption/Description

Prior to 2003, Bihari children were denied access to all government public schools. Even now, the Bihari are not permitted to secondary or university level schools. For many children, camp mosques serve as one of the only places to obtain any kind of primary-level schooling. The blackboard reads, 'Allah is one and Mohammed is His Prophet.'
