On a collective note, more than 30 schools have been burnt or reduced to dust over the past 3 months. Although there have been no casualties as the schools have been shut for almost four months now, but it’s enormously upsetting to know that an institute that facilitates knowledge can be knocked down so brutally.

In fact, there's no concrete reason as to why these schools are being burnt; one can only blame the outrage that has been triggered in the valley.

Upon being asked, a lot of sources and accused condemned such incidents, the state government pointed accusing fingers at separatists while the central government termed these as acts driven by the "combination of madness and perversion".

On Monday, the state’s High Court has come forward and appealed the government to protect these schools. It is obviously not the right time wherein they can afford such losses.

On 1st of November, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar tweeted his offer of rebuilding 27 schools burnt down in the valley.

A humanitarian, spiritual leader, an ambassador of peace, Ravi Shankar is well known for his foundation, ‘Art Of Living’.

His offer can ease the pain of many distraught lives in the tension-stricken Kashmir. As many as 7 schools became rubble and 10 were damaged tremendously and with this, a lot of students can go about living their normal lives.
