missing students was realized after an afternoon roll call on the students.
"After the roll call, 610 out the total number of 704
students have returned. We are still searching for the remaining 94
students", he said.
On whether the students were abducted, he said, "We cannot
say, because the insurgents went into the students hostel, and many of these
students scaled fence to the bushes. Until final list of these students no one
can tell if they are abducted or not".

that there children had reached their homes safely, "And, we are calling
on parents to help the school update its list by reporting immediately if their
children arrived home safely."
The State Commissioner of Education, who is outside the state on
official assigment, said a competent team has been dispatched to the school.
"The team is profiling the students to know those who are
missing? And, how many of them were able to return or ran to their families at
