Hungarians protest against PM Viktor Orban acts

Hungarians protested on Saturday against education reforms enunciated by Prime Minister Viktor Orban . Teachers Union said it is another  attempt by the right-wing leader to boost his control over state institutions.Teachers, demands include a sharp reduction in teaching hours and a free choice of textbooks, were joined  outside parliament by other unionized workers including miners and civil servants. Singing the national anthem, some protesters shouted “We won’t let this happen.” Others held banners saying “Don’t chase our youth away.”
Protesters  further add the reforms are part of a centralisation drive by Orban over the past six years that has brought state media and other public institutions under his government’s control.
