“I have my matrix (Indian Matriculation) coming up, and the tuition centers are all closed, so I’m studying by myself with the textbook. I can’t go to school because some days there is ‘hartal’ (stone pelting protests), some days there are curfews, some days there are a walking protests. My dream is to get 480 out of 500 marks. That’s hard to do without school.”
