More than 80 students of Rishikul Sanatan College are currently locked out of the school.
Although it has been made clear the school will be open today, the school committee has locked up the main gates of Rishikul with a message that the school will be closed until further notice.
Our reporter at the scene said that some students came and waited outside the school for about half an hour this morning and returned home while about 80 students remain outside the school compound hoping that the gates will be opened and normal classes will continue today.
Two teachers also arrived in the last half hour and they are also awaiting word from the Education Ministry.
Meanwhile, the Interim Education Minister has stressed this morning that Rishikul Sanatan College will continue with normal classes today.
Following the announcement by the Rishikul management that the school will be closed until further notice, Interim Minister, Filipe Bole has made it clear that the management cannot order the closure of the school.
Bole said any such move would be illegal and he calls on all the students of Rishikul to attend school today.
