The students of Lalit Madhop Sharma High School, Khongjom, today staged a sit in protest at the school complex demanding adequate teachers for the school and also locked
the ZEO Zone HI office located inside Thoubal DC complex.
The students closed the office at around 11 am after directing all the staff to vacate the office.
A member of the school's students union stated that only 6 teachers are available for the school which has around 273 students (class VI to IX).
The students have been boycotting the class from July 26 demanding adequate teachers and had even submitted a memorandum to the ZEO Zone III, Thoubal to take up necessary actions.
