Students of the KiiT International School here on Wednesday invited the rape victim Odia girl of Bangalore to take admission and study peacefully in their school, provided her parents agree.
The KiiT International School students staged a protest march against the gangrape of the six-year-old girl in a reputed school in Bangalore. Thousands of students holding placards took out a procession from the KiiT International School to KIIT Square demanding speedy justice for the victim.
Voicing deep concern on increasing incidences of rape and other crimes in schools, they demanded that Government take decisive steps to check the trend. They gave importance to awareness programmes in schools and sought special laws for this. They demanded maximum punishment to the culprits under the law. KIIT & KISS Founder Dr Achyuta Samanta said it is heartbreaking to know about the Bangalore crime. It is now most important to change the general attitude towards girls and women in the society. Value education should be included in school curriculum, he added.
