No acquisition: Kids back to school

PARADIP: The children of trouble-torn Dhinkia and Patana villages are a happy lot. Now that the land acquisition has been put off indefinitely they would not have to be a part of the human barricade for long hours. They broke out of the barricade after Posco Pratirodh Sangram Samiti (PPSS) decided to keep a watch on the Gobindpur boundary by turns village-wise and children too would be part of it. Dhinkia High School, Dhinkia Primary School and Patana Primary School were full to their capacity on Thursday for the first time after schools reopened post-summer vacation. The children of Gobindpur, however, failed to attend school on Thursday as it was their turn to guard the Gobindpur outskirts.  While they would be attending school on Friday, the kids of Dhinkia will watch the boundary.
