New Delhi: The unrest in Nandigram in West Bengal took a different turn when students and their parents of a school locked up the Headmaster for closing the school without any notice and allowing the Communist Party of India (CPI) to hold a meeting in the school premises.
When students arrived at the Benoy Bandhupur Kandu Parash primary school, they found it shut and saw that CPI West Bengal state secretary Manju Majumdar was holding a meeting there with around 200 people.
After the meeting, the students and their parents locked the Headmaster Bidesh Patra in his room.
Majumdar told PTI that the CPI had asked the headmaster for permission to hold the meeting and thought it unfortunate that the headmaster had not issued any notice to the students or their guardians that the school would be closed.
Nandigram had witnessed a seesaw battle on early Sunday morning between CPM supporters and protesting farmers, who were resisting land acquisitions for setting up an SEZ for the Salim group of Indonesia.
