Policing students who  bring bikes to school

The quick response by the Director of Education Santosh Amonkar banning students from riding two wheelers is a welcome step. Asking the heads of schools to act like traffic Police to check on their students who bring motorbikes to school is uncalled for. These students do not park the motor bikes in the school premises but away from the school... one can find parking in nearby compound or road side.The DoE should write to the Government to introduce the Traffic Sentinel scheme with protection. The government can also install CCTV cameras to capture these students who violate the order otherwise this is just a waste of time and one dept passing the buck to another... that's how governance functions. The last time I had written to the DoE regarding the petrol pump being proposed near the school the DoE didn't find it important to take up the matter or support the people. Let the traffic police do its duty while leaving the school staff to do its teaching duty.
