Video shows students forced to sweep school floors

Mumbai: Students at Kulgaon Badlapur Primary Municipal School from classes I to VII are made to come an hour early every day to sweep the three-storey school building. What's shocking is that the kids have been doing this for many years, as civic authorities claim there are few sweepers in the Badlapur area, and none appointed for municipal schools.

The building houses two primary schools - the one from Manjarli area caters to 38 students and is run from the top floor, while the other from Belavli has 162 students and is run on the ground and first floors.
