Students Protest Unsafe Conditions in Hyderabad Schools
Students from two schools in Hyderabad had serious problems.
At BC Gurukul School in Shamirpet, students protested because their hostel was in bad shape and the food had worms and stones.
They also said the staff was mean to them.
The police wrote down their complaints and will check the school.
At another school in Kondapur, 44 students got sick after eating a dessert called semiya kheer.
They were taken to the hospital, and doctors said they will be okay.
The school and local officials are checking why the food made them sick and how to make the schools safer.
