The student union AISF has attacked Hyderabad Public School in Hyderabad and caused damage to furniture, infrastructure including computers. The agitators, who lost their temper, on noticing that the school management was not observing the bandh call given by the student unions on Wednesday allegedly resorted such act.

It is known that AISF has called for school and colleges bandh against educational institutions demanding large amounts of money towards the fee. Will these bands really benefit an average student will always remain a million dollar question whenever there's a debate whether bandhs are good to schools or not.

Whatever might be the reason, asking educational institutions to shut down their schools and colleges would only damage children's future. While teachers will be happy that they got a break due to the bandh, so will be the students who will  plunge into their extra avigations. It is high time for youth to raise voice against the bandhs.
