rallies before and will participate in rallies so long as Indian laws permit
them to. That there is nothing illegal in partaking in such activities. Later,
I cited the relevant Constitutional provisions. Now what exactly is wrong in
students participating in Rallies? or do you agree with Dr Falcao who believes
that extra-curricular activities have no part to play in schooling? >>>
RESPOSE : Could Sandeep please clarify
under which University/Educational Board/Institution does the syllabus mention
“Street Rallies” as
extra-curriculum? Anna Hazare University? Or is it Politician’s University?
Second question: What is it that is tried
to be inculcated into the children by taking them to participate in street
rallies? Politics? Or was it politics/natak to make a show of numbers by
exploiting school children?
Anti-corruption and integrity can be taught
in the classroom. It would be very much appreciated if these ACI activist had
discussions on anticorruption and integrity in the schools & colleges. It would
expose
who had better knowledge.

question and a very simple one. Is there any specific procedure under the
Indian laws for obtaining such a parental consent?>>>
COMMENT : This exposes ignorance of the Law
in respect to ‘Informed consent’, which is no excuse!!
For your kind info, Majority of Goanetters are experienced and
knowledgeable and not DUFFS!
