Later, he visited the PM SHRI Girls Senior Secondary School, Narnaul, where he interacted with girl students.

He discussed their fundamental rights guaranteed under the Constitution, urging them to report any violation without hesitation. He also reviewed the grievance/suggestion box, and emphasised the importance of staying informed about one’s rights.

Concluding his visit, Goel inspected the ration depot in the Kharkhari locality. He interacted with ration card holders and inquired about the quantity and quality of ration being distributed.
