Schools Reopen In Jammu & Kashmir After 370 Abrogation, Students Hope For Undisturbed Education news18.com
Srinagar: Donning uniforms after nearly seven months, thousands of students on Monday turned up at their schools that re-opened across the Kashmir Valley. Schools had been shut since August last due to the lockdown that followed the abrogation of Article 370. All security arrangements were put in place for the students to attend schools, officials said. The students were happy to be back at the schools after remaining home all these months. “It is a good feeling to be back at the school, to attend my class, in fact, a new class, after so many months,” said Ziya Javed, student of Class 6 at a private school here.
Javed said the students felt bored at home and it was exciting to be among friends and classmates once again. “There was not much to do at the home. It was boring to sit, not do much all these months and wait for the schools to re-open. Finally, there is some excitement,” he said.
The only time students or their parents had visited the schools in the last few months was to either collect or submit their home assignments in the absence of any classes. “I had gone to school a few times in these past months to collect assignments, but there were no classes. I wanted to attend the classes because I want to study and become a doctor,” said Numaan, a Class 4 student.
