As a result of the protest, commuters face a lot of inconvenience.Alleging that the School teachers had not attended the school for the past many days and teachers were not taking any interest in their jobs, protesting students said that the school is already short of teaching staff. The students said they would no longer tolerate the absence of their teachers and the government must ensure their presence in the school.After two hours protest, the agitating students dispersed peacefully when local police and civil administration officials assured them that their grievances will be addressed without any delay.
