Unnao schoolgirl viral video: BJP worker clears dues for student seen weeping and complaining about being made to miss exam
Holding government officials and elected representatives "morally responsible", BJP MP Varun Gandhi today shared the viral video of a girl weeping after she was not permitted to take an exam over non-payment of fee at a private school in UP's Unnao district. इस बेटी के आंसू उन लाखों बच्चों की संयुक्त पीड़ा बता रहे हैं जिन्हें फीस न जमा होने के कारण उपहास झेलना पड़ता है।आर्थिक तंगी बच्चों की शिक्षा में रोड़ा ना बने यह हर जिले के अधिकारियों व जनप्रतिनिधियों की नैतिक जिम्मेदारी है।निजी संस्थान मानवता न भूलें, शिक्षा व्यापार नहीं है। pic.twitter.com/GZL9RwSICB
"The tears of this daughter show the pain of lakhs of children who have to face humiliation over non-payment of fees," he tweeted, in Hindi. "It is the moral responsibility of officials and public representatives of every district to ensure that financial constraints do not hinder the education of children," he further said, thus seeking answers from his party's government as well.
To private institutions, he said, "Don't forget humanity. Education is not a business."
