Default Motorcycle driven over kids in TamilNadu school

Source: http://ibnlive.in.com/news/bike-driv...s/98086-3.html

A state government run elementary school in Tamil Nadu's Villupuram district, celebrated a function by making students endure the pain of a motorcycle run over their hands. And as if this was not bad enough, a motorcycle was also driven over the stomach of a little girl.

School authorities say that it was meant to be a bravery show and was organised with the consent of the parent-teacher body. The students say they were put through the stunt several times as practice.

that's not called bravery. That's called insanity and stupidity. F*** those teachers and parents who agreed for the stunt.

Bravery? I'd rather be called chicken than do anything remotely as stupid as that.

Another news article on the same incident, international press.

Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/8173742.stm

Schools in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu will be instructed not to stage events with "risky" stunts, an official told the BBC.

The move follows an event in which a martial arts trainer drove a motorcycle over the hands of students.

The show, which was being staged during a function at a school in Villupuram, was stopped after the relative of a minister present protested.

its all politics... almost 40% of the schools conduct such 'deadly acts of bravery' on children.. it should be some politician who is trying to capitalise on this..
