IT is unfortunate that schools are closed frequently. During the last academic session, schools were hardly open for 170 days in Karachi out of 365. It is easy for political parties to call a strike, but it is the students who always suffer.

There is a dire need for realising at this critical hour that students should have a maximum number of days in a year for classes.
