If the students spent more time studying instead of protesting, maybe they would have passed

Can we please give them extra marks? Sorry they may have not studied, but that's beside the point.

The students are upset that they failed an exam and want to stage a protest. Well, this happens everywhere in India. Can Dawn put this in context alongside similar protests in Pune, Hyderabad, Kolkata and elsewhere instead of trying to paint it with religious colors?

I don't understand why the reporter calls the police-women as Indian, as if they are from some other state of India. The Police are very much from the State of Kashmir. Such minor protests happen at dozens of places in India, on daily basis. What does Dawn want to achieve by trying to sensationalize the minor protest by showing the pics?
