Baripada: Students of a school in Odisha’s Mayurbhanj walked over 25 km to put forward their grievances before the district administration on Wednesday.
The students embarked on the 25-kilometer journey for the Sub-Collector’s office to apprise the district administration about the different problems they face every day.
Sources said that the students of Dudhiani GP High School located at Purunapani village under Karanjia block is encountering various problems after the institution was shifted to a new site, owing to the Deo Dam Project.
