Almost like Taliban’s offensive against education in Pakistan and Afghanistan, groups in Indian occupied Kashmir are destroying schools and ensuring their continued shutdown.
According to official figures, seventeen government schools and three private schools have been wrecked in the last three months of unrest.
The schools in Valley have remained shut since the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani on July 8. Officials said that around two million students have been prevented from going to schools across the Kashmir Valley.
The closure of schools and colleges has also been enforced by the diktats issued by the Hurriyat and freedom fighters.
