Students plan protest in Kolkata over closure of 8,000 schools and poor education funding.

The Students' Federation of India (SFI) plans a protest on January 27 in Kolkata against poor education standards in West Bengal. The protest follows a government report highlighting the closure of 8,000 state-run and aided schools, with 3,254 having no students and 6,366 having only one teacher. The SFI accuses the state government of mismanaging funds, spending on celebrity events instead of education.
