SFI announces bandh for schools in Hyderabad, other Telangana districts

SFI has put forth several demands.

Hyderabad: Students’ Federation of India (SFI) Telangana committee has announced bandh for government schools in Hyderabad and other districts of Telangana on November 30.

The bandh aims to highlight critical issues such as repeated food poisoning incidents and the government’s alleged failure to address the challenges faced by students in these institutions.

Rising concerns over food safety

The protest comes in response to a series of alarming food poisoning cases reported in government and welfare residential schools. These incidents have caused severe health issues among students.

According to SFI leaders, despite the seriousness of the situation, the State government has not taken adequate steps to ensure the safety of meals served in these schools.

RL Murthy, President of the SFI Telangana committee, expressed frustration over the government’s indifference.
