Imphal, June 22 2013 :
Pressing the state government to take back its hasty decision of converting Ramlal Paul Higher Secondary into a girls' science secondary school, Kangleipak Students' Association (KSA) and Students Federation of India (SFI) have pointed out the need to constitute an educational policy to mitigate the issue of school admission in Manipur.
Last year the incumbent Education Minister specially arranged to accommodate all the students seeking admission in TG Higher Secondary School, but all of a sudden the same person has decided to kick out students of Ram Lal Paul and covert the boys' school into a girl's school from this year.
It's confusing to think under which new policy, the Education Minister has taken this decision, a release from KSA stated.
It also said that student community would have warmly welcomed the decision if it was for accommodating the excess students from TG Hr Sec School by making Ramlal Paul co-educational.
In another statement, SFI has asserted that instead of taking the senseless decision of changing the identity of Ramlal Paul School, if the state government had initiated to revive Tombisana High School, the present protest by students of Ramlal Paul School could have been averted.
The proposal to construct market shed at the place where Tombisana School once stand and setting up security post in the school campus is a strange policy of the state government, SFI ridiculed.
