Maha school makes kids write 'I'll not forget to bring ₹300' 30 times

A school in Maharashtra has faced criticism for its punishment of students who failed to pay their diary and identity card fees on time. The New Horizon Scholar's School in Thane reportedly asked around five to eight students to write a sentence 30 times in their notebooks as a reminder to pay their fees, with the deadline being April 20.

One concerned parent complained to the school management, who have promised to take action against the teacher responsible for the punishment. Other parents expressed their distress, with one stating that their child was left traumatized and unwilling to attend school.

Another parent suggested that students could have been given a more appropriate task, such as writing a paragraph from their textbook. The school has not yet issued a public statement in response to the allegations. The incident has sparked a debate on the appropriate ways to handle fees and student discipline in schools.
