BANGALORE: Writer Baraguru Ramachandra called upon working community to protest against the unscientific policies of the State government. Speaking after inaugurating the State-level conference of the Karnataka School and College Computer Teachers’ Association on Sunday, Ramachandrappa said, “At one hand, the government is promoting IT education in a big way and on the other hand, nearly 10 crore children are not getting admissions into schools.
