బెంగళూరు మహానగరంలో ఓ సాధారణ ఆటోవాలా కోట్లకు పడగలెత్తాడన్న సమాచారాన్ని మొదట ఆదాయపుపన్ను శాఖ అధికారులు నమ్మకపోయినా.. తనిఖీలు చేశాక నిర్ఘాంతపోయారు.

బెంగళూరు మహదేవపురలో ఆటోడ్రైవరు సుబ్రహ్మణి అందరికీ సుపరిచితుడు. ఆయన ఈ మధ్యనే వైట్ఫీల్డ్ పరిధిలో ఖరీదైన విల్లా కొన్నాడన్న మాట అనూహ్య ప్రచారానికి నోచుకుంది. అసలు ఆదాయ పన్నే కట్టని వ్యక్తి అంత ఖరీదైన భవంతిని ఎలా కొనుగోలు చేశాడని ఐటీ అధికారులకు అనుమానం వచ్చింది. ప్రణాళిక ప్రకారం ఏప్రిల్‌ 16న అతని విల్లాపై దాడులు చేశారు. వివిధ ఆస్తులకు సంబంధించిన కీలక పత్రాలను స్వాధీనం చేసుకున్నారు. వాటి విలువను ఇంకా లెక్కించలేదు.

పలువురు రాజకీయ నేతలతో సుబ్రహ్మణికి సన్నిహిత సంబంధాలు ఉన్నాయని అతని నివాసంలో లభించిన ఫొటోల ఆధారంగా తెలిసింది. ఆ నాయకులంతా భాజపా ప్రముఖులేనని సమాచారం. ఇన్ని ఆస్తులున్నా సుబ్రహ్మణి ఆటోడ్రైవరుగానే బతుకుబండి లాగుతున్నాడు. తమ ముందు విచారణకు హాజరు కావాలని ఐటీ అధికారులు ఆటోవాలాకు నోటీసులు జారీచేసిన విషయం బుధవారం సామాజిక మాధ్యమాల్లో వైరల్గా మారింది.

It (the model of the school) removes all that, even a sweater will be changed because we will have to wear a standard sweater. So, it (the model of the school) removes our individuality, our freedom."

STORYLINE:
When students at Ceilândia state school No. 7 in Brazil's capital came back from their break in February, they were met by two dozen uniformed police officers in a place they barely recognized anymore.
Guns in their holsters, the officers ordered students to form rows in the schoolyard.
The students were given white T-shirts pending the arrival of their uniforms.
From now on, boys would have to keep their hair short and girls tied at the back.
No more shorts, caps, brightly colored nail varnish, earrings or any distinctive pieces of clothing. Students arriving late wouldn't be let in.
The quasi-military approach is one of the most visible educational efforts happening under new Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, a former army captain who campaigned on promises to improve Brazilian schools, which are widely recognized as a problem.
A 2015 study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ranked educational performance in Brazil as 63rd out of 72 countries and regions.
Schools co-run by police are modeled after Brazil's exclusive military colleges, which are run by the armed forces and tend to perform better than most public schools - a fact that makes many parents eager to see similarly rigid discipline.
Under the model, teaching remains in the hands of the education ministry, while police officers oversee discipline and enforce a new code of conduct. Implementation of the pilot program in a school must be approved by a majority of parents, teachers and school staff in a referendum.
The Ceilândia school is one of four in Brasilia that voted to take part.
Officials in Brazil's capital hope to add 36 more schools by the end of the year and reach a total of 200 by 2022.
Bolsonaro's administration is pushing similar expansions nationwide, though it has yet to say how many it plans to convert across the country.
Some states have been exploring the model since the early 2000s, but a large expansion worries many education experts and teachers' unions, who say such schools can become exclusionary and go against the concept of a free, open-to-all public schooling system.
"A professor is a professor and a policeman is a policeman, those are two different public policies where they (police and professor) are 'actors' but, it's not good the policeman to have a role inside the school as a leader of the discipline" said Claudia Costin, an expert in Education and former Director for Education at the World Bank.
Those against the model, argue that these schools have managed to improve results because problematic students are quietly substituted for better performing ones, often from wealthier backgrounds.
"A public school in the suburbs had so many demands to fulfill for timing, for wearing a uniform, that they (students enrolled) were leaving and were replaced (by other students)," said Roberto Schiavini, a professor at the school in Brasilia applying the model.
Another red flag for critics is the introduction of guns in schools, particularly in the nation that leads the world in total homicides each year, the majority from firearms.
The expansion is a flagship measure of the Bolsonaro administration but a spokeswoman for the education ministry said it had no data on how many such schools existed or studies on long-term benefits of the model.
Besides putting police in some schools, the far-right government of Bolsonaro has been pushing for other changes in the country's public education sector, accusing it of being filled with "Marxist ideology."
The education ministry has talked of revising history books used in teaching to refer to Brazil's 1964-1985 dictatorship as a "democratic regime of force" and of excising references to feminism, homosexuality and violence against women.
Most recently, Bolsonaro said public funding for sociology and philosophy could be eliminated.
In recent years, some schools taken over by the police have garnered headlines when prosecutors have had to intervene after they began charging monthly fees to parents, imposed expensive uniforms or sought to set aside half of the school's places for children of police officers.
In 2016, the head of education for police in the state of Goias revised the school system's internal regulation that normalized "expulsions" and "forced transfers" of students.
The move followed a recommendation from state prosecutors who argued that in public education expulsions must remain a last recourse.
The administration says it is targeting violent and low-performing schools or those located in at-risk areas, where drug trafficking takes place or paramilitary groups called militias operate.
According to the head officer in Ceilândia state school No. 7, Major Edney Freire, the duties of police officers, called "monitors," include making sure students don't fight.
"For example, if there is any kind of problem among the pupils, the monitor will go there to talk to them, he (monitor) will call the parents," he said.
It doesn't always work out in such calm fashion.
In Ceilândia, a crowded working-class neighborhood in the outskirts of Brazil's capital city, violence against teachers was not so much the problem.
But drug traffickers operated unfettered around the school and vagabonds were regularly seen drinking and using drugs in the area.
When the news came out that the school would enter in a partnership with the police, many parents sought to sign up their kids.
Some arrived two days before the school opened, camping outside the facility to make sure to get a spot for their child when the doors opened.
Students must line up in the school yard daily. Heels together, arms straight along their bodies, heads looking straight forward toward the school's Brazilian flag.
Adriana da Silva, the parent of 17-year-old student Vitor, said she had not been called in to the school to discuss the teen's conduct even once.
"Here we feel the model and the rules make a difference in his life," da Silva said.
