AISF Alleges Entry Denied During Mumbai School Audit
A group of students wanted to check the condition of a public school in Parel, Mumbai.
They said they were not allowed inside the school.
The students also alleged that the school administration called the police.
They said they sat peacefully outside and asked to meet the principal.
The group was part of a campaign called “School Thik Karo.”
The Cockroach Janta Party started the campaign.
It has asked the city administration to let citizens help review public schools.
The students said they will continue asking for safe, clean and properly equipped schools.
