One solution out of many:
Creating videos of young people against corporal punishment and sharing them in social media will raise enormous conversations and engagement of young and adults over the issue. And in a best case scenario, it might be taken up by relevant authority to work on the various guidelines given by the NCPCR for dealing with issues related to corporal punishment in schools.
