Imphal, December 16 2020:
The All Kakching Students' Union (AKSU) has appealed all concerned not to pressurise parents of students to send their children to school boardings on the pretext of upcoming Board Examinations.
The COVID-19 crisis has crippled all spheres of life and many families are in deep economic crisis and to exert another burden during such a time is uncalled for, said AKSA in a statement.
The fight against COVID-19 pandemic is still on, reminded AKSA while adding that imposing poor parents to compulsorily send their ward to boarding homes run by schools will not only trouble the parents but will also impact negatively to the students.
Commodification of students or anything close to it is inadmissible, AKSA continued.
