At least 300 students and around 100 parents marched to the Hamirpur district magistrate’s office on Tuesday, carrying national flags and banners, to protest against damaged roads and waterlogging near their school.
The students, mostly from primary classes, walked nearly 6 km from Gangwa Ka Dera and Bachchi Ka Dera villages to the collectorate, demanding a permanent paved road. Police stopped the protesters at the collectorate gate, and the group later returned to their villages.
