They noted that students from Upper Rajwar are the worst affected, as they must travel over twenty-five kilometers to reach Handwara and attend college there.

“The people from Upper Rajwar are not financially well-off, so they cannot spend much on their children's education. Authorities must understand the struggles of poor students in the Rajwar area and approve the college at the earliest,” they added.
