NDTV
High Court's statement came while disposing of a plea seeking a declaration that "educational bandhs" called by students organisations or political parties are illegal.
The Kerala High Court has said directions by it and the Supreme Court barring bandhs or strikes in the state should be implemented by all authorities concerned and violation of the same would be "viewed seriously".
The observation by the high court came while disposing of a plea seeking a declaration that "educational bandhs" called by students organisations or political parties are illegal, unconstitutional and a violation of the dictum laid down by the Supreme Court.
The plea had claimed that due to a bandh called by some students' organisations in 2018, the Government P.V.H.S. school, Perumkulam, Kottarakara in Kollam district had to remain closed for a few days and a complaint in this regard to the police had not elicited any action.
The state government, opposing the plea, told the high court that on receipt of the complaint, police had arranged a meeting with all stakeholders and the issues raised by the Parent Teachers Association of the school were settled amicably and thereafter, there was no such incident.
