The Attakulangara Central High School protection committee has come out against the construction of a toilet in front of the over-a-century-old institution.
In a statement here on Saturday, the school protection committee said the toilet for Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) women employees was being built near the school entrance. It was coming up beside the school compound wall where a bus shelter was also situated.
A committee member said the work came to their attention on Saturday morning. After they repeatedly voiced their protest and contacted the offices of the Mayor and the Transport Minister, the construction was stopped for the time being. “It is shameful that a toilet is being constructed outside an institution of learning.”
