Habsiguda: Residents of V V Nagar Colony in Habsiguda Street No 8, who have been agitating for the last 18 days against mushrooming of corporate schools without following any regulations in residential areas, on Monday staged a sit-in following information that a school, Narayana Olympiad, was to be inaugurated.
A tense situation involving the residents and parents of the schools prevailed following the protest. The sit-in blocked the entry of students into the institution. The police intervened and pacified both sides.
Local residents Sanjay and Shanti Kumar told The Hans India that people of the area were angry with the school being launched on a road which was not even 30 ft wide as it would cause traffic jams, questioning who would be responsible for any future accidents. The residents stated that already the residents had complained to the Education department against the school with an appeal not to give permission. They warned that protest would follow if the school was run.
The school dean stated that it had the department's permission, while questioning the residents' move to stop the institution. Among those who participated in the sit-in were Yadava Reddy, Pradeep Reddy, Ranjith Reddy, Indra Singh, Ganesh Naik, Lakshmi, Pradeep Reddy, Premnath, Bhadra Reddy, Shanti Gangadhar, residents of the colony.
