On June 23, 2026, students at a government school in Delhi protested against the lack of safe drinking water, demanding immediate action from authorities. The protest, which took place at the school premises, involved dozens of students who reported health issues such as stomach infections due to contaminated water.
According to local reports, the school's water supply has been inconsistent and often unsafe, with students relying on bottled water or going without. The protestors held placards and chanted slogans, calling for the installation of water purifiers and regular water quality testing.
School officials acknowledged the issue, stating that a complaint has been filed with the municipal corporation. The Delhi government has not yet issued a formal response, but the protest highlights ongoing challenges in ensuring basic amenities in public schools across the city.
