Parents in several Indian cities, including capital Delhi, are protesting against what they call "unsustainable" fee raises by private schools. These increases, they say, are stretching household budgets to a breaking point and taking a toll on their children.
Aaditya Mattey, 14, woke up on 9 May feeling confident about his English exam.
His father dropped him off at his school in Indian capital Delhi, but Aaditya never got to write his exam.
"Two or three minutes after I entered the class, guards and bouncers asked me to leave the room," Aaditya recalls.
His father was still standing outside the school gates when Aaditya and a few other students were asked to get on the school bus, which dropped them off at their homes.
