Education dented over religion?


Anxiety ruled among students and their parents with Supreme Court staying the Ayodhya verdict until September 28.
Now, it’s a game of now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t for many primary, mid-school and senior secondary students who are already tensed up over their ongoing examinations.
The holidays that were declared for Friday and Saturday now stand withdrawn after the Supreme Court stayed the Ayodhya verdict, forcing the state governments to withdraw the holiday notices and making the students sweat all over again in the absence of a confirmed communication from the helpless schools.
Why helpless? Because the ban on bulk SMSes continues despite all other things being withdrawn.
Great!
So how are the schools supposed to inform the students or their parents about whether there will be school or not on Friday and Saturday?
See? This is what happens over a long-forgotten structure that has become a symbol of victory or loss for the two religions in question who will unfortunately view the Ayodhya case as a credible indicator of that.
But in the bargain, what we call the future of our nation continues to suffer.
