Don’t disturb
This refers to the present unrest Kashmir where education sector has suffered immensely for the past five months. Kids, who should have been in the schools during the peak academic session, were either protesting on the roads or somewhere else. The unrest has hit the children psychologically. It has defeated the very purpose of education. Our leaders should understand this and ensure that examinations and education goes hand in hand without any disturbance.
