The boys and girls seen inside Partap Park in schools uniforms are hardly checked by the concern officials, especially school authorities, if they are really bunking the classes and wondering around for hangout: Khubaib Mir*

“`Srinagar—The Chairman Voice of Youth Khubaib Mir today said that the Pratap Park in city center Lalchowk has turned into hangout spot for scores of students studying in different educational institutions in the vicinity who are seen bunking classes under the very nose of school authorities.
Khubaib Mir said that the students studying at women’s college, SP Higher Secondary School, SP College, Girls Higher Secondary School Kotibagh, Girls Higher Secondary School Amirakadil could be seen skipping classes, roaming around, sitting in groups and having fun in Pratap Park for whole day.  The boys and girls seen inside Partap Park in schools uniforms are hardly checked by the concern officials, especially school authorities, if they are really bunking the classes and wondering around for hangout.“`

*President VoY Nadeem Yasin said that the administration is paying no heed to curb this practice by the young student. Adding that this has led to immoral activates in the area too.  When asked, a group of students from SP higher secondary told us, “In the month of March we have attended only 3 classes, because we attend classes in tuition centers so why we need to attend school”. Ironically they added that they don’t need to attend school.*

*Advisor Aqib Qalandar said that the students should follow the rules and regulation of an educational institution. He added that tuition centers are the main reason that students take classes in school easy. We have constituted a team to have check on students. We will call parents of students by the help of school administration who skip classes and find out the reason why they are not attending their classes.*

*Cheif Spokesperson Aaqid Dar added that parents also should support school staff to restrict students from wrong practices. He also appealed Station House officer (SHO) police station Maisuma,to always act against such cases if found and call their parents.*
