Education is backbone of nation
Weight of school bags should not exceed limit of tolerance
Weight of school bags should not exceed limit of tolerance
Education is the backbone of a nation. However, the heavy bags carried by our young students are causing harm to that backbone. Many children are developing curved backs due to the weight of their bags. It appears as if they are carrying heavy burdens, not just books, on their shoulders as they go to school. In the words of Kabir Suman's song, "The school bag is too heavy, can we really carry it? Isn't this a form of punishment? It hurts, it hurts!" Indeed, it is very painful. Year after year, the authorities have overlooked this issue, putting young students in real danger, which is concerning for the country's education and health sectors.
