With the Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) administration cracking down on private schools allegedly run by Falah-e-Aam Trust (FAT) affiliated with the banned Jamaat-e-Islami group, thousands of students are staring at an uncertain future. On Monday, J&K's school education secretary directed nearly 300 schools to stop academic activities and seal the institutions within 15 days. It also asked students to get admitted to government schools.
