In Bhopal, School Girls Destroy Fans, Windows To Protest Harsh Punishments | Read
Students at a government school for girls in Bhopal rose up in protest Wednesday claiming they are forced to clean the premises and classrooms and mow the lawn, and face harsh punishments for minor infractions, including standing in the baking sun if they are even five minutes late to class.
Hundreds of girls from the Sarojini Naidu Girls Higher Secondary School took out a sit-in protest today against the management and an employee Varsha Jha, whom they have accused of mistreating them. Ms Jha, appointed only a month ago, has reportedly apologised.
