PROTEST: Schoolchildren and their parents staging a demonstration at Kittur Channamma Circle in Hubli on Thursday.

HUBLI: Students and parents staged a demonstration here on Thursday against the Government's decision to cancel the permits granted to schools found violating the language policy of the State.

Students of some of the schools that have been lost recognition staged a demonstration at the Kittur Channamma Circle here.

Taking away the the recognition of schools in the middle of the academic year was not proper, they said.

They urged the Government to put off the decision until the beginning of the next academic year and make alternate arrangements for getting the students admitted to other schools. As many as fourteen schools in the twin cities lost recognition recently for violating the language policy.
