Alleging neglect of tribal residential schools, he said snakes and scorpions should be released at ministers' residences.
Fadnavis directed that the ashram school's license be cancelled permanently, and the official who inspected the school recently and submitted a favourable report despite the deficiencies be suspended.
Fadnavis also asked the chief secretary to convene a meeting and establish a comprehensive inspection mechanism for ashram schools.
The government will also undertake a third-party audit of about 511 aided ashram schools in the state, the minister said.
