Protests try to break barricades outside the school

The shocking incident has led to protests in the city, which entered its fifth day on Monday. Led by BJP's students wing Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, agitators tried to break barricades of the school. The police resorted to lathi-charge to quell the protests.  

Protestors want action to be taken for the safety of women and children. 67,000 people have signed a Change.org petition floated by the mother of a three-year-old girl to make schools safer.     

The girl from Vibgyor school in Bangalore was sexually assaulted on July 2. The complaint was however filed on July 14 as the girl took a while before reporting it to the parents. The parents have been up in arms against the school management for trying to hush up the matter.
