KOLKATA: As city streets come to life with pride marches, Kolkata schools believe it’s time education became more inclusive for LGBTQ+ students.

While Kolkata schools organise workshops and interaction sessions to normalise queer identity, students, queer teachers and activists stress that gaps still need to be overcome.
