Children protest against the lathi charge on student in Mumbai

In a democratic country like ours, every citizen, including children have complete right to protest or speak in support of any issue. If the system doesn’t agree to their protest or support, it must make arrangements to debate the issue with them instead of using force to suppress the voice of students. Every student of India, today, detests the lathi charge on the students in Mumbai who were raising their voice against the controversial issue of reservation. We feel that this important issue must be dealt with in a nation-wide debate. Instead of politicizing it, we must work towards ensuring good education to all. This will be achieved once we start reserving a significant portion of our G.D.P. for educational expense only after analysing the total requirement of funds for providing good education to all and making the allocations accordingly.
Let us, the students, demand this kind of reservation so that every child of the nation may get a chance to be educated.
